The Room (UcrossFoundation, WY)
carpet of interwoven garlands of Zinzania Acquatica wild rice grass draped over forms

$18,000 plus installation
Grasses were gathered along the Shoshone River for this installation created at the UCross Foundation in Wyoming. By placing a magic carpet of woven garlands strung densely with bundles of local wild rice grasses over chairs on the manicured lawn, I was interested in challenging the assumption that wild nature is exterior to our daily
existence. I wanted to encourage viewers to consider how the wild grasses offers an ecologically-attuned, psychological sanctuary in comparison in the interior rooms of our furnished homes. That the chairs face each other suggests that this nature-integrated space maycreate a space more inviting and conducive to dialogue. For me, “the Room” is a kind of Space For Peace.
