For this piece, Esopus-based artist Kimberly Kae envisioned two towering chair-o-plane rides that briefly intersect like an old set of scales. The seats are filled with young Muslim women in headscarves; one rider extends her arm and holds out a red ring, implying both a ring toss and the ‘O’ of O+. The viewer’s vantage point is from the seats of the opposing ride; the women’s heads are not covered and the central flamenco-esque figure seems to challenge with her gaze as if to say, “You’re next, try.” Kae says the interaction is brief, but an opportunity to learn something from each other, to exchange and thus enrich our lives much like O+ seeks to do through the exchange of art and medicine.
