Description: While watching a Cowboy Western,  I heard the phrase dance hall girl referring to a woman who worked in a saloon; this seemed like a pretty peculiar label for a woman. A dance hall girl was considered a fallen woman, dressed in  scandalous outfits and bright colors. Dance Hall Girl consists of small high-definition video projections of flowers dancing; projected in a lit room.

  1. CAC Museum of Malaga, Malaga, Spain, Dance Hall Girl 10.
  2. Blanton Museum of Art, Austin,Texas, Dance Hall Girl  8.
  3. Palm Springs Museum of Art, Palm Springs, California, Dance Hall Girl  8.
