This Spring (2021) BVOH was commissioned by the SFMTA and VisionZeroSF “Left Turn Project” to produce three video PSAs promoting making safe left turns. For one of our projects our Visual Designer Z Perdomo collaborated with BVOH Resident Artist Raissa Simpson and PUSH Dance Company members Ashley Gayle and Patrick Secrease to create an abstract and artistic dance piece that asks the driver to pay close attention to what is/could be happening in the intersection.
