Her projects in glass often include still images from her videos. These stainless steel towers and windscreens are installed on outdoor train platforms in Portland. Two or three layers of images derived from her videos are silkscreened with vitreous enamels and fired on separate panes of tempered float glass. The panes are assembled into triple glazed insulated glass units. The windows are portraits of dreaming people from the community, superimposed over the subjects of their dreams.
