Preserving Space

Social Practice Group Invitational
Organizer, June Woest
​Russ Pitman Park, Bellaire, TX

March 28 - May 2, 2010
Overheard in the Park
Spoken by Park Naturalist, Eric Duran
This is the way spoons grow.  It also happens to be their blooming season.

Dormant, by June Woest & Urban Artists


It is a nearly impossible task to bring the dead back to life, but I tried. For the show Preserving Space I collected broken branches from the floor of Russ Pitman Park and whittled their ends with a utility knife in order to create a memory of  what could have been. I drilled holes in the deadwood, then attached wooden spoons to act as shallow reservoirs to catch and hold rain water. Can spoons hold rain water?  I am left wondering whether the broken and dried branches on the park floor were dead or merely dormant.

Thank You Urban Artists
