New artwork from me, "Average Citizen", an interactive public data sculpture that assigns visitors the average waiting time for a US public service. When a person sits, the chair silently selects a wait duration drawn from real, publicly available municipal data and begins counting down. The visitor is not told which office they are waiting for, only that they are now an “average citizen.” The chair does not respond to urgency.
