Thinking about a project coming up with Lucky Penny. Building the first run of the furniture conglomerate sculptures during their project Threshold to be held in Aug. This really a challenge because the way I was taught to build is very intuitive and I need to be able to talk and describe things clearly for the other collaborators to think about. It makes me reminisce
about how Dad built all those houses by himself, barely scratching together the necessary permits. Maybe because it was so difficult to find someone who could work with him.
I digress; building that little house in the Ewing showed me that I had got the picture. It was easy to build what I had imagined. I wish I had a better image to show you, but the external harddrive holding the documentation for this project was stolen from the U.S. Postal system while in transit from Knoxville to L.A.

So this idea that I have...
dove gray=luminosity/luna/night/negative-painted furniture=
interior-(im)materiality-balance-necessity(?)-possession-the impossible/the probable.
working in communion-cadence-cooperative.
In relation to the cardboard=ephemeral, shipping, transit.
visual/textural=dry, corrugated, neutral.
Furniture on the lawn, an eviction or desertion which dissipates.
Who is leaving, and in what state of mind?
How do we feel about the element of abandonment?
Should it be purely decorative?
Am I freed from the constraints of utility and public safety?
Cause I was thinking of towers.
originally towers to be climbed.
I like having a base of gray with other elements (persian rugs I want) to play with.
