A rooftop can refer to home, stability, or shelter, but in this context, it is also an action of reclaiming power.” The work makes reference to the Museum’s ancient Egyptian and African collections and to the Jan Martense Schenck House, a two-room structure built in 1676 that is Brooklyn's second-oldest example of Dutch-American architecture, and the oldest architecture in the Museum’s period room collection.

She describes the work as “an independent rooftop, removed from its house, and dropped from the sky to live its own life in a new context. A rooftop can refer to home, stability, or shelter, but in this context, it is also an action of reclaiming power.” The work makes reference to the Museum’s ancient Egyptian and African collections and to the Jan Martense Schenck House, a two-room structure built in 1676 that is Brooklyn's second-oldest example of Dutch-American architecture, and the oldest architecture in the Museum’s period room collection. Viewers are encouraged to physically interact with The Eastern Oracle and to use it as a place for self-reflection and self-empowerment.<br /> <br /> Raw/Cooked: Heather Hart<br /> April 13–June 24, 2012<br /> <a href="http://www.rawcooked.com" rel="nofollow">www.rawcooked.com</a></p> Brooklyn Museum house building brooklyn project oracle artist contemporary installation eastern brooklynmuseum heatherhart rawcooked http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.0/deed.en http://www.flickr.com/photos/brooklyn_museum/6878040520/ <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/brooklyn_museum/">Brooklyn Museum</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/brooklyn_museum/6878040520/" title="Raw/Cooked: Heather Hart"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7101/6878040520_3f04e36c7f_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Raw/Cooked: Heather Hart" /></a></p> <p>The fourth exhibition in the Raw/Cooked series presents the work of Bedford-Stuyvesant–based artist Heather Hart.
