@bundlehouse 🖤 Remembering + Rethinking . Untitled Boat No.1 6ft x 7ft x 38” Found wood, metal, inflated latex gloves, earth, live plants, sculpture, rope, leather, brick, plastic bones 2013 . Some say it’s dark. I say it brings light. Some asked if it’s about death. I say it’s about the value of life. Some asked why the soil. I say, this land, that land, the other and that one too. ...and the bones? “We’ve found many, with more to come”. Latex gloves filled with my breath, then tied and placed with a wish that they would last...longer than 30 days. They asked why black? Black is Beautiful, we can discuss this through the lens of Blackness, a void, strength in adversity, density. ...and the boat as an object? Boat as a symbol. Bringing it, taking it, leaving it on shore after shore. Since the beginning of crossing over. Seas, oceans, straits, canals, sounds they traverse(d). Bringing it, taking it, leaving it. . . #supportblackart #bundlehouse #nyugensmith #assemblageart #installationart #sculpture #socialsculpture https://www.instagram.com/p/B-fo1ZZh7h7/?igshid=1udimb7g9mii
