North Ave Suddenly

This appeared on a busy road almost suddenly. I drive this road most days and on this day I drove west hours earlier and was driving east to gather my materials to move to my studio in NC for a month to work. In the hours between each direction maybe three hours, this appeared. It was being violently blown in the wind. In the median of a two lanes of city traffic flowing in each direction. It did not last long.

This memorial was frenetic in it’s motion. Wildly flailing in the winter wind with a fine icy mist coming down. It had the sense of a mother waving her arms at an accident scene.

Morning Quiet

The following morning it was still there but deflating and the wind which had been assaulting it had calmed. It seemed as it had come to terms with grief.
