“ this iteration (of my work) was new and bolder because we had more time to build big costumes and portable set pieces with a large access to materials.
— Esther Baker

While working at RAIR, Esther and Bamba worked on creating a range of wearable sculptures for a series of 5 performances done through the Cannonball Festival called SOPPI / CHANGE. They did several batik dying sessions of old curtains, which we was used as an interactive ocean element with audience participation during the performance. They also created a series of short films in the yard and superfund site that played behind them during the dance performance at The Icebox Project Space
