M Foster in her ArtLab installation  
Michelle Foster / ArtLab / Claustrophobia Shelter is aimed to impart senses of security and claustrophobia simultaneously.

This installation aims to jar notions of spatial relation, shelter, and security. This installation will remain on view in ArtLab through May 24th. MORE HERE
