We are located in the Gold Coast, in Dearborn and Elm street in Chicago, IL, in 2003-4, on the 25 th floor of a highrise luxury apartment building overlooking the loop of downtown Chicago and the apartments across the road. These are the windows of my own apartment, the hand painted poster-like works spell “What Are You Doing With Your Freedom?�. Post the Iraq-war, the USA heavily branded the liberties of its people. I closely observed my surroundings and
often wondered how people managed their liberties behind the posted signs. The posters were visible from across the road. Any tenant from the 10 th to the 33 rd floor from across the road could read the message at hand. This work has never been shown as documentation, it was on show for over six month. Now, it is another occasion to consider what have we done with our freedom all this time, what are we planning to do next. What is being compromised here?
