"Stacey Carter's installation documents six buildings at Hunters Point Shipyard - 351, 351A, 366, 401, 411, and 439 - slated for demolition. Through recovered artifacts, historic photographs, original documents and archival research, the work traces the layered histories held within these structures."
"Built to support World War II ship repair and later Cold War research, these spaces carried the labor of shipfitters, welders, machinists, and engineers who contributed to significant historical efforts."
The Shipyard Trust for the Arts presents an installation honoring six buildings on Shipyard Parcel G, set for demolition. This exhibit preserves their histories through mixed media, including artifacts and photographs. The closing event features an artist talk with four artists discussing the impact of the Shipyard on their work. The exhibition runs from February 21 to April 11, 2026, culminating in a final opportunity to bid on artwork and reflect on the buildings' significance to the community.
