Root of the Problem: This blog features some of my work in addition to visual research and articles I am reading. There will also be an occasional project with my students to look at.

Artist: Pam Ayres - Installation at Michigan Legacy Art Park 2010
The Water Brought the Trees, July 2010 - July 2011
Michigan Legacy Art Park, Thompsonville, MI
A site specific project for Michigan Legacy Art Park in Thompsonville, Michigan. The project involves using naturally felled branches and broken young trees that have been cleared and discarded. I am be shaving off areas of the old bark and exposing the smooth wood underneath. The installation will be shaped into boat like sculpture with branches protruding through the structure so that it hovers above the ground at about eye level. I am using simple building materials and methods to put the work together such and latching with wire and then covering the heavy wire with natural fibered rope.
