Description
Primary Description:
Glass, acrylic, steel; approximately 2,000 found drinking glasses. Green, brown, colorless glass vessels, machine-made; Plexiglas. The installation consists of three structures, or “trees,” made of found drinking glasses stacked on Plexiglas shelves with steel supports. The tallest structure has 12 shelves, and the two smaller structures have 11 shelves. In each structure, the glasses are arranged on the shelves by color to form the outline of a simplified tree with green leaves and brown trunk. From a distance, the installation appears as three shimmering trees.
