In the New York-based artist's installation "The Spirit and the Letter" (2007), viewers enter a room where video and mirrors create a disorienting architectural inversion: at the center of the room, an ornate chandelier rises out of the floor; on a screen a woman stands upside down in the room's inverse, performing a monologue edited from Mary Wollstonecraft's writings on women's rights.
