Artist's Comments

This is a picture I took of what is essentially a found object that is unique in that most are usually not attached to something. In this case, this is some remnant of a metal staircase or scaffolding on a condemned warehouse in south Baltimore city. I liked that the form of the object suggested something like the lines of a magic square or the work of Mark Di Suvero while the shapes and values of shading suggested Rothko's work. I leave it for the view to decide the aesthetic worth of this captured image.

This is an awesome pic! Its like a standing contradiction of itself... like 'ya, there was a wall here, then we made a hole in it, and then we remade the wall'...lol. Super!~

That is the nature of the found object as embodied in the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi.
