8 ft. x 6 ft. x 2.5 ft.; wood, porcelain, neon, and metal
A medley of one part carnival ride, one part “how’s the weather”, and a pinch of social parody inspired this work. This work began an exploration into artificial light sources and their incorporation into this and subsequent sculptures. Activated space and implied movement have been heavily emphasized in this design. It is larger than life with varied surfaces from a recycled shiplap wood surface to steel inlaid tracks, yellow neon, and two porcelain urinals. It is at once playful, bizarre, sophisticated, and suggestive.
