DONT GO, 2022

DONT GO is a poem and a crossing sign placed unexpectedly along a path where no signal is needed. Speaking to pedestrians in truncated phrases, the poem relies on the audience for interpretation of its various instructions, such as “LOOK OUT,” “WALK AWAY,” and “SUN SETS.”

The featured phrases on the sign were generated in O, Miami’s education program and written by students at Coconut Grove Elementary, Emerson Elementary, Fienberg Fisher K-8 Center, Holmes Elementary, Miami Norland Senior High, Morningside K-8 Academy, Orchard Villa Elementary, and Poinciana Park Elementary, The SEED School of Miami and Theodore R. and Thelma A. Gibson Charter.
