Appearances: Provincetown Green Arts Festival is an annual arts festival held in April. The festival now occupies a former wooded campground and occupies local museum and gallery spaces around town during the 10 day event. I was invited to participate in the festival in 2012. I created a tripod tower of locally sourced scrub pine, which I banded with charcoal and white pigment mixed with acrylic with a solar powered light atop. The piece was sited above a beautiful kettle pond within view of homes and a park observation deck. That year I also exhibited a tower of black and white banded automobile tires with a wooden temple atop. The tire tower was sited along the busy Route 6 that leads to Provincetown and the beaches of the National Seashore.

In 2013, I created Fallout. This sculpture was created of painted blocks of wood salvaged from the Freedom Falls Mill restoration project. The banded and banded wood elements were suspended with sisal twine from over 20 trees along the sculpture parks central access drive and around the small rotary that forms the routing hub of the park.
