Mneme XVII: There's No Place Like Home

1990

This sculpture suggests that while one might “plant a flag” somewhere on earth, home is still often a transient proposition, defined (at least in an earlier age) by where the television is. Varied memories regarding home are scattered across the curtains and the little transparent house, which is illuminated by a flickering television.
