Thought about a satire of NY Mets baseball and the placement of cardboard fans in the stands

 I still love it. It's a great idea and it's beautiful.

the idea evolved with a few bong hits...

Wow that looks pretty cool. Where is that garden? The Cloud House? Does The Cloud House even exist anymore? 

Loved my 5 years in New Paltz great place to go to school and be a "townie" 81-86 fun times!!! 

Yeah, Eggman, my wife and I kept coming to New Paltz for the weekend, and we decided to just move here.  The pivotal event was 10am on a Sat morning. the town was still asleep ... except for one dude traveling down the middle of Main St on a longboard whilst wearing a tall Cat-In-The-Hat  hat

The garden is in my front yard right at the street. Kind of fun to see the double-takes of people walking by ....

Very nice. 

I like it, it definitely creates that "double-take" effect. It's creative, shows a good use of a variety of materials, and I like the sense of depth created by the frame, which at the same time creates the juxtaposition with the open air all around it. I don't know that I have a clear understanding of the work in my mind, or what it means to me, but I like it and applaud the creative effort. Great work!

Wow, Javs, That is some pretty insightful observation.

Clear understanding of the meaning? Your guess as clear as mine :-}

The section in the narrow tall photo above has a theme. BLM > Rosa Parks & Sojournor Truth (underground highway through New Paltz) > Civil Rights March in front of bayonets with Ghandi & Lincoln watching >  George Floyd 

 

PS Thanks Howard
