Wall Weed and Sky; Old Wall, Costa Norte, RD

“Wall, Weed, and Sky” considers the infinite and cyclical nature of beauty and being. It is of a once bright now fading wall adorned by the crown of weeds in front of it. Color and light more fully express the protean nature of their existence and their beauty, and by reference, that of all things.
