Misael Soto takes his giant Beach Towel to Miami Beach on 41st Street this Memorial Day, May 28th. Anyone and everyone is welcome to occupy and enjoy the towel which will be there from sunrise to sunset. Bring food and drinks, your favorite beach games, kites, instruments, or anything else you like.
Misael hopes to subvert the way beach-goers claim their temporary real estate on the beach. Having it on Memorial Day, the event intends to indict and subvert American excess. Misael places the towel in one of the busiest beaches at one of the busiest times, in an attempt to not only comment on how we chose to share the wealth (or not), but to also provide a space where he creates the opportunity for communal transcendence above the conditioning of capitalism.
