00:00This is an incredible tale.
00:02Artists set up an apartment inside Providence Place Mall
00:05going undetected for years.
00:08We all hated the mall when it went up, right?
00:10Nobody wanted that to happen.
00:12Shortly after, a developer comes in and says,
00:14I'm gonna knock down your home.
00:16I just had this idea.
00:18Oh, we should live in the mall.
00:22It seemed like a very absurd fantasy
00:25and perhaps a great challenge.
00:31When the mall was being built,
00:33I saw a space that I could not figure out
00:36what it would be used for.
00:38We went looking for that anomaly in the architecture
00:41and we snuck ourselves in there
00:43and we took out our flashlights.
00:47There it was.
00:48It 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.
01:02It's important to emphasize
01:03there's this underlying sense of dread
01:05that we're gonna get caught at any time.
01:12Wow!
01:16So what is it?
01:17Is it a prank? Is it a work of art?
01:18Is it a social experiment?
01:19It was like this alternate universe
01:22that's within the real world.
01:24It talks about justification, capitalism,
01:27everything being commodified.
01:31The apartment was the side project to the other stuff.
01:35We were like a little elite strike force team
01:38of empathetic artists.
01:42Such a magic thing
01:44to take a space from the mall.
01:57Holy commodity.
