Artist Tiffany Trenda shucked 1,000 oysters to create the walls of the installation. Then she pre-recorded a video image of her face that was later played on a screen that the artist held during the performance. The audience at first glance perceived the screen as a window until Trenda lifted the screen above her head.
The work comments on how the beautification of the female body through media creates a disconnection.
