Red Cabin

Hover over the image of the piece to see it magnified. 

1993. Bricolage. 8″ x 8″ x 6″. Private Collection. 
This box was made entirely from objects found in an old cabin on Spring Island, SC: (the red painted siding, wallpaper, even the screws). It is collaged inside with an article from the 30’s describing how the cabins were built for the black workers who lived on the Island, out of lumber cut and milled there.
