Eye Candy

Installed in a window front of a Saint Louis bookstore, Eye Candy was a narrative based installation that evolved over the course of two weeks. The elements used were a group of hand made ceramic birds and a cast fruit hung from the ceiling. Every evening before closing I adjusted the installation, adding, removing, and altering elements. As the days strung together a storyline unfolded. This encouraged viewers to come back daily to see how the piece had developed.

The birds were later used for a more elaborate piece Urban Plight.
