Paper Cast Rocks

Paper Cast Rocks

While I was playing around with casting paper over rocks, I had the idea to find an interesting public venue in which to install them. The first bunch of photos in this section are from the Eldersburg Branch of the Carroll County Library. I spent a couple of hours talking to people and placing the rocks. It was fun to nestle them amongst the stacks of books. I am grateful to the Library staff for making this possible.The second bunch of photos is from the Horowitz Center at the Howard County Community College (MD.) I picked it because of its contemporary architecture. I requested and received permission to take a day and work on different installations of the rocks in the lower lobby of the building. This placement had the added benefit of being in the direct travel line from the garage to the rest of the campus and many conversations ensued as I was working. It was a really fabulous experience and I am grateful to the staff at the college for letting me play in their building.
