Screen Test: Isabel

Times Square / 2023

In this surreal journey through time and collective memory, Screen Test: Isabel combines film and fantasy to reclaim popular cultural narratives, subvert conventional constructs, and explore the limitless possibility of identity and gender.

Screen Test: Isabel was made for Midnight Moment, the world's largest and longest-running digital public art program. Presented nightly to millions of viewers each year, Midnight Moment showcases the work of contemporary artists. Synchronized nightly from 11:57pm to Midnight on the jumbotrons of Times Square, this program presents public art on one of the world’s most iconic public canvases — the electronic billboards of Times Square.
