hanging in the middle of the two side windows: an absurd nest form made from loveseat springs, fractured lathed furniture legs and upholstery fabrics. a familiar tassled golden rope tugs between the window's downed-curtain and a nearby table leg.
splintered wood impales the balled-up mass of covered springs. as orange inards squish through the seams, floral crewel stitchery motifs cascade from the wounds. exposed springs are lined with red ribbon trim, out of which yellow tendrils (color-matched to the rope; with tan and light blue polyps and cream colored buds running along) are sprouting. sewn bobbles of various toothy blue, orange and tan fabric ascend to the top of the window's ledge.
the window ledges and the floor beneath are littered with fallen bobbles (made from an on-line ornament pattern i found that involves sewing six circles together at certain points to make a 3-d ball), fabric scraps, unused circles, and cut-out flowers from one of the textiles i used.
