2024 T-shirt, steel, silver brazing, found shoe heel 23 x 14 x 15.125 inches
I found this shirt in the gutter, collaged and stretched it over an elliptical dome, wider than it is deep. The design beneath comes from another building facade in Rome, where the stonework frames an arched niche intentionally left empty. A lost/found heel occupies that space here. Three places converging, working for each other.

2024 T-shirt, found shirt, painted cardboard, steel, paint, rust, stitching, metal wire, found shoe heel 17 x 21 x 10.625 inches
Sunrises all over the city. Sunrise to keep people out, sunset to keep your AC in. Paint is a fixer, metal a clock. Cardboard is corrugated like a rolling gate, so I rolled it up. I fixed the blues with more blues. Most awnings used to be striped, and this shirt I found is proof.
