These three-dimensional paintings/sculptures were created for Drainage, a collaborative installation with Philip Mantione as the BOX 1035 duo. In various ways each piece is about desire, and the use of construction materials is a reference to the suburban lifestyle sought out by many Americans. partypooper has a subtle resemblance to the American flag. A drip of paint moving upward against gravity defies the norm and stains the happy atmosphere of the confetti-covered stripes.
