In one of the convention center size rooms making up the Migrant exhibit at the FENIX is a bus made out of fabric that visitors can walk into.
The Bus is the work of an American artist named Red Grooms. Red is from Nashville. He’s estimated that he has traveled by bus twenty-four times to New York City and back. The bus was another world. In the FENIX people lined up to get on to take a look just as if they passengers waiting at a New York stop.
Inside the soft fabric bus are passengers made out of colored fabric and other textiles.
The ads above the windows are parodies of personal testimonials.
With his blend of fabrics Red has blended cultures.
