This is a piece I made for a group show in the Central Utah Arts Center sculpture garden. The show was entitled "Enclosure" and all the works kind of fit that theme. Mine was a 6' tall, 4' wide, 2' deep box trap (like the kind they use in the cartoons). It is propped up on a stick with a "crisp, clean, (false) $100 bill" dangling from the inside. I wanted it to be funny, but also give people second thoughts about going in and snagging the $100.
Shut up?! I absolutely love this! They should have video taped this just to see how many people went it. Even without the money I would have...I wouldn't be able to resist, curiousity would get the best of me.
