Zephyr, 2006 Lawndale Art Center Houston TX This project consisted of nine 9ft tall sails installed outside the gallery space. Each Sail connects to a green monofilament string and travels around the building through white pedestals to the front entrance. The strings then travel through the gallery space and connect to a long pedestal full of dirt at the base of the inside strucure. The strings then attacth to a corrosponding row of panels built with strips of 1/4" MDF arranged in an oblique grid. As the sails ouside catch the wind they translate into the inside piece and create a subtle grass-like/wheat-like movement of blowing in the breeze.

I would have planted orchids, 2005 Piece contains a motor and a digital timer to make the
object "blossom" and destroy itself over 1 month. Failure to periodically replace the water causes the piece to
destroy itself faster.
