title Search: General Viewdescription Chicago-based artist Inigo Manglano-Ovalle proposed a transformation of the bullring at Playas de Tijuana for inSITE2000. Working on a scale indicative of the vast site, Manglano-Ovalle transformed the bullring into a large radio telescope searching for "aliens." Titled Search/En Busqueda the piece functioned as a listening device searching the atmosphere for any discernible noise made by aliens. A suspended antenna above a receiving dish located at ground level of the bullring would pick up sounds that in turn would be broadcast, along with the white sound of listening, on speakers surrounding the bullring, as well as on FM radio and the web. The notion of possible contact with aliens both at the border and in space made the piece, according to the artist, "a global event, possibly cosmic." --inSITE2000 Plaza de Toros Monumental de Aguascalientes (Aguascalientes, Mexico) Science, Technology and Industry Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 02, Item 228) Tijuana, Playas de, Baja California Norte, Mexico [Title, Date].

Untitled Depot
title Untitled Depotdescription Garden and Landscape Nari Ward's "Untitled Depot/Estacion sin titulo," installed at Playas de Tijuana, was an interactive piece that brought people together. Dedicated to the healer and child in everyone, the installation was constructed from doors, bed springs, and other found materials that visitors could walk through and experiment with. Ward felt that the physical interaction that brought visitors together inside the installation was vital for the totality of the piece. The bed springs that encouraged visitors to jump up and down were based on Ward's interest in suspension, and the balance it implies between rest and motion -- inSITE97 Plaza de Toros Monumental de Aguascalientes (Aguascalientes, Mexico) Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 311, Folder 01, Item 398) Tijuana, Playas de, Baja California Norte, Mexico [Title, Date].

Abandoned Ii
title Abandoned Iidescription Garden and Landscape Originally created for inSITE92 by San Diego artist Michael Schnorr and Swedish artist Ulf Rollof, "Abandonado II" was renovated for inSITE94. The project was from the beginning born of the particular circumstances that describe its location. Situated on an empty lot across the street from the Pacific Ocean at Playas de Tijuana, the installation was intended to serve the numerous abandoned children who live along the border in the beach area. The installation consisted of several pieces constructed from brick and concrete, among them two pieces of fire-heated outdoor furniture, the "Fire Sofa" and "Fire Chair." It also included a shell-like echo chamber titled "Habla/Head - Cabeza/Speak" and a circle of brick school desks titled "The Bricklayers' Class." The installation became a gathering place for locals and a playground for children. - InSITE94 Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 04, Item 312) Tijuana, Playas de, Baja California Norte, Mexico [Title, Date].
