MISCONSTRUED  2010 / traffic barrels / sheet plastic / bondo / auto paint / patina                                                                                  

Twelve traffic barrels hit by vehicles were collected off the side of New England highways.  The barrels were closed off at the base through plastic fabrication and finished accordingly.  Five of the barrels were displayed in a gallery. Six of the barrels were placed into the Providence landscape, photographed, and left on site, one barrel was finished to a rust patina and displayed alone.
