Blandscape:
Destiny
Manifested
utilizes
a
"Found
Object"
as
frame.
In creating
a piece
about the
environment,
I mixed my
metaphors,
so to
speak.
The old gun
rack seemed
perfect for
a piece
about Manifest
Destiny.
Guns and
barbed wire
conquered
this land
and now we’re
paving
every
square mile
of it.
In a toy
store I
found the
Four
Horsemen at
the top:
road-stripe
yellow
cowboys
atop
asphalt-gray
horses.
However,
I leave
hope in the
piece; near
the bottom,
a sprig of
grass
breaks
through the
pavement.
