Can't See the Forest for the Tees


Dear Visitor: You are invited to "plant" a tee within the boundary (or to "transplant" an already-planted tee.) This work invokes the notion of planting in the physical act of pushing the tees into the earth, and compels people to adopt a different perspective than usual, close to the ground. It is an evolving sculptural object that relies on variations in density and planting depth. At first, it is a subtle change, hardly noticeable, but as the project grows, it forms a new landscape. The tees, made from wood and unpainted, seem almost like a naturally occurring element of the meadow, but they reveal our human impact. This communal project represents the arbitrary nature of our collective decision making process when it comes to stewardship of the environment and other large scale issues. The tees evoke both a physical, miniature landscape that changes over time, and data points on a scatter graph when viewed from above.
