Butterflies of India at Krohn Conservatory (2009)
Jan co-designed this show with Heather Wiggins, horticulture, and programming designers from the Indian community of Greater Cincinnati. Set design was inspired by Katmandu, Ganesha, Gandhi, Taj Mahal, peacocks, rangoli and colorful costumes. This show was built by the community in workshops located in Cincinnati Park’s Sinton Warehouse, beginning a trend of community-based exhibition fabrication. The design philosophy began trending to recycling show props in storage.
