5 'Cents' Installations
To expand the vocabulary and the experience of each painting, every painting is placed in a sort of confessional/urinal structure that engages as many senses as possible. The enclosed space traps a strong but relevant smell. The entrance is partially blocked by found trash or a cheap trinket or whatever. Beyond the entrance obstacle, music plays that I made to match the painting or made and liked and thought matched a painting. For those in search of a complete sensual experience, dirty food sits in dirty bowls. The viewer is invited to touch anything. Every element adds up to either the theme or message or ambiance of the painting.
