911: Dust and Deceit

September 11, 2011, the PAUSE PRESS PLAY project launched in Miami and in New York featuring the film "911 Dust and Deceit" and an art installation and exhibit.

In Miami, the event at the LMNT Contemporary Art Space included an art installation/exhibit, "The Pause Towers" - a plexiglass sculpture filled with prescription bottles and medical packaging from ten years of prescription based treatments from health survivors of World Trade Center illness. The event also featured the 2006 film “9/11 Dust and Deceit” by Penny Little which examines the questions of health problems suffered by thousands of first responders, volunteers, workers who were exposed for months to the toxic dust in lower Manhattan.

PAUSE Project Director Rachel Hughes who has struggled with the health effects the WTC Syndrome for the past ten years explains the concept: “Pause delves deep into the questions I face on a daily basis. Because of my illness I have been forced to ‘pause’ and reflect on the questions surrounding 9/11. It’s time for everyone to Press PLAY and find some positive solutions.”

Little who is from Southern California traveled to NYC to do follow up interviews for an addendum to her film, during the week before and after 9/11/2011 and to show her film as part of the PAUSE PRESS PLAY project and Health Help 9/11. The showing at the Walker Stage in NYC included a presentation by healing consultant Ama Lia Wai-Ching from Singapore. “It’s a really wonderful collaboration. Having someone present who knowledgeable about what the health survivors can do for themselves, what anyone can do to improve their health and well being, is one step in the right direction.“

Little says she has located everyone from her original film, and interviewed most, and is planning to return to New York City to do additional in depth interviews in early November, with completion of the addendum planned for early December to preview during Art Basel in Miami.
