CONFETTISYSTEM, the artist duo of Nicholas Andersen and Julie Ho, has created an immersive environment inspired by the mechanics of theatrical staging and fly systems for MoMA PS1’s two-story gallery. Entitled 100 Arrangements, the work evokes theatrical scrims and curtains and features new and older design elements by Andersen and Ho that are suspended from above and can be adjusted to varying heights to produce nearly endless permutations. The work serves as a performance space, playing host to live events that are part of MoMA PS1’s Sunday Sessions program. The variable environment can be reconfigured to best suit each event, highlighting a compositional system that allows for a functional design.
