The inspiration for this project came as I walked out of the back door of a gallery to the alley parking lot. I saw a lovely morning glory, rooted in a pile of gravel, winding its way up a pipe amidst a sea of meter boxes. Morning glory can be an invasive species. However, in the context of the grand universe, it is the citizen, not the interloper. Concrete, metal and plastic are the intruders in the natural world. Alas, those materials continue to expand, crowding out the natural world. And, yet, the natural world persists, taking root anywhere it can, in a quiet fight in behalf of the universe.
This is an ongoing series. It's a spontaneous project, requiring an ever observant eye and a cell phone camera.
