PROJECT REBUILD


PREVIOUS TENANTS

Vancouver special

 



RECOVER  SPECIAL




A little further



a little further back, please



move at least

can’t see the trees



 



for the city



the forest



beams wood



 



wake



reflections shock us sheetless



the surface stuck with glitter



 



sophistry stuck on the front lawn



of grace



not on it 

‘in the house’



 



how can I make myself less abstract?



how can I make myself less elsewhere?



 



what can I afford?



who?



how much land will make my family 

fit into the equation?



how to engage more than a mortgage?



 



question specifics



answer uniquely



 



state beauty: attempts failed
