Planetary specimens

Plexiglass, Lichen, Moss, etc.
1" x 1" x .5"
2006-2007
36 objects in and outside of Little Tree gallery
and placed around the neighborhood

These are allusions to souvenirs, Petri dishes, and small natural and unnatural surprises

I wanted to break down the divide between inside and outside, natural and artificial. These transparent peepholes growing moss and lichen permeate windows and mirrors. They were installed on both sides of the gallery window and glass door above and below eye level. They extended beyond the gallery to neighboring storefronts and mirrored walls.
