Detroit Industrial Projects presents an installation by Steve Coy that explores what future spaces might look like. This installation examines real versus perceived or imagined spaces. Using sculptural elements combined with video and wall murals, the work explores ideas about interior and exterior spaces, technology, consumption and elitism.
