Neglect
Wood - Worn & Weathered Outside for 10 years
71”W x 28”H
1999-2009
Description: A counterpart to “Flat Out”, “Neglect” speaks to aspects of ourselves, our homes, our lives and relationships that we neglect, waiting for life to slow down so we have the time to address, fix or give attention to them. “Neglect” is made from a piece of a shed that has aged and worn over 10 years, untouched and uncared for -- yet the piece has taken on its own beauty and layering and patina. It did not wait for us to “get around to it” -- much the same as those things that we neglect change and transform even without our attention.
