““It’s so unreal just the monumental proportions of the waste stream. That’s when I kind of learned I had to honor the system instead of looking at it with this disdain” ”
— Anne Ishii

During Anne Ishii’s time at RAIR she used sourced materials from the yard to create a series of trash instruments. After the fabrication of the instruments, Anne hosted a ceremony of music and dinner inviting friends and fellow collaborators to join in performance. The group performance acted as a ceremony for prayer, group chants, and to mediate on the idea of collective relentlessness.
