In November 2019, Space Us put out a call for artists for an exhibition titled ‘WORD ART’. YIKES was a temporary installation for Space Us in Downtown Crossing in Boston, Massachusetts during the holiday season.
“An installation by Tianna Rivera features a giant wall with the phrase ‘Yikes’ printed over and over. It serves as an Instagram background, and, according to the artist, poses this question: ‘How do you successfully take forgettable moments of everyday life and make them feel important?’ via the Boston Globe written by Janelle Nanos”
