New sculpture

 I made these copper grass pieces and this morning ran out at dawn to install them and take photos.  This is a piece of private property right on Rt. 66, that only ever gets used for the sale of Christmas trees in the winter.





The idea was to make industrial grass, and have it growing in an industrial environment.  It's kind of a joke to me... real grass can't grow here so lets grow fake grass.  I think my next move is to do this again in a place that has no plant life whatsoever.  I'm also thinking of painting the grass so hideous industrial color like neon green.  I want to do everything I can before painting, because once the paints on, it's not coming off.
