Nancy Mellon and the Yellow Springs Art Council put together an event spanning 3 days, where 3 artists (Pierre Nagley, Ron Hundt & Jennifer Bachelder) and 1 videographer (Travis Hawkes) would be locked in the gallery with nothing but donated materials and 3 tools that each of the artists decided to bring in order to build whatever they could fit into the gallery.
