Large Glass Co.

Reflecting the much-used sight gag of early cinema, in which a pair of workers carries a sheet of window glass across the street, which is then either narrowly missed or crashed into by the protagonist or antagonist. The Large Glass Co. performance uses parallel pseudo-reflective panes to a trope that hinges on transparency and physical humor.
