2013
cast resin, spraypaint, wood, enamel
36 x 48 inches



i recently wrote a friend about this piece, before it was finished:

beautiful song, but actually quite eerie/spooky lyrics. 
the title will be the longitude & latitude coordinates of a rural area i know. a vague and potentially confusing piece, but to me, it's this difficult-to-describe love of folklore/storytelling that comes with old-tymey midwestern rural life.  natural elements occasionally seeming supernatural, frightening, etcetera.
