TO LIVE OR TO SURVIVE There is always another side of a story. “To Live or To Survive� brings to light aspects of life that are often taken for granted by showing the duality between life and survival, and the struggle that individuals face in the pursuit of each. This site-specific installation holds a conversation about housing and immigration issues in Seattle. The unique architectural form, recycled objects, and interactive activity all invite you to reflect, question and share your thoughts with each other.
