Lafayette Park

By Diana Quinones Rivera

Project Description
Lafayette Park is a game that uses dance to transform space. Born out of the tragic passing of a New Jersey resident, this interactive project guides the player through a series of news reports and interviews with locals of the Jersey City neighborhood of Communipaw. Through dance, we help elevate the spirit of the park and the community surrounding it.
