		< > Mid-Town Mountain and Mt. Wall street, 2000 Soil, sod and mixed media. 2.8’ x 9.8’ x 10.3” & 3.1 x 5.6’ x 5.8”. Since arriving in New York I’ve envisioned the city as a grassy landscape rather than an urban metropolis.

Various Mountains have been commissioned, to date, including Mt. Houston, at Diverse Works, Houston. Essay by Glen Adamson, Catalogue.
