Shipping considers the history of the cardboard box, which extends back to the first commercial cardboard box makers in about 1817 in Great Britian. For much of the 1800s in the US, shipping boxes were made of white pine, at the time plentiful in New England and in the midwest. Shipping is an audio installation relaying the sounds of the Chicago Rivier through a box of white pine, which fits snugly within the Box Gallery.
