SITE SPECIFIC INSTALLATION ON BOSTON PARKLAND BELOW JOHN BOYLE O'REILLY's  MEMORIAL STATUE and inspired by his poetry. Feathers collected onsite and suspended from birch tree branches frame the installation like proscenium arches of a theater, Jagged outlines of rocks welded in steel form a cage over the plaster claws added to the tree-trunks, and Dried rose petals form paths that lead the viewer from the memorial down the hill in to the park.
