00:00This is an incredible tale. Artists set up an apartment inside Providence Place Mall, going undetected for years.
00:08We all hated the mall when it went up, right? Nobody wanted that to happen.
00:12Shortly after, a developer comes in and says, I'm going to knock down your home.
00:16I just had this idea, oh, we should live in the mall.
00:22It seemed like a very absurd fantasy and perhaps a great challenge.
00:30When the mall was being built, I saw a space that I could not figure out what it would be used for.
00:38We went looking for that anomaly in the architecture, and we snuck ourselves in there, and we took out our flashlight.
00:46There it was. It started the conversation immediately.
00:51We need to develop this underutilized space.
00:55There was a real necessity to build a wall there.
00:58It was like 5,000 pounds of cinder blocks.
01:01It's important to emphasize there's this underlying sense of dread that we're going to get caught at any time.
01:12Wow.
01:15So what is it? Is it a prank? Is it a work of art? Is it a social experiment?
01:19It was like this alternate universe that's within the real world.
01:24It talks about gentrification, capitalism, everything being commodified.
01:31The apartment was the side project to the other step.
01:35We were like a little elite strike force team of empathetic artists.
