A person-made rock, a mass of concrete extending
upwards and – in front- outwards.
The rock is split, down the middle, once-half
of the rock separated about six inches from the other half –
almost a passage through the rock, but too small for a person
to fit in. The split is a clean cut; the sheer inside of each
half of the rock is sheeted in plexiglass, a cover for light
– a glow is cast into the split, it’s as if the
rock has been split by light.
Scooped out of the rock, on all sides, are niches,
filled with dirt; plants flow out of the holes and spill down
the rock.
Into the rock, in the lower section that extends
outward, an old car tire is inserted across the split, like
a bridge. The tire provides a place to sit; a person sits in
a place that’s something like a garden and at the same
time something like an automobile junkyard – dropping
into the tire, the person’s feet lift off the ground,
the person sits in mid-air, over the split in the rock.
