This is a site-specific sculpture developed in two weeks for a group show at Incubator Studio Gallery. 

Borrowing the title from Jonathan Lethem’s novel <Gun, With Occasional Music>, the piece consists of a seemingly impossible journey involving a wicked creature giving itself up as a pathway for a heavily burdened subject to reach a questionable salvation. Most materials were used items marked by the artist’s past labor.
