Sense Us Census

The Sense Us Census is an intervention based on the ethnic and racial questions from the last official census of 2010. The artist takes a survey along one of the most diverse streets in the world, sparking conversations about America’s obsession with racial classification. He offers pedestrians the opportunity to select exactly how they wish to be identified, a choice the US Census has only offered since the year 2000. In this moment, participants pinpoint their sense of themselves, questioning the questions and thinking outside the little boxes.
