Underwear Sculptures

When voluminous  women

remove their underwear

It becomes a sculpture;

crumpling many layers of it,

becoming a new sculpture on its own

with the creases, twists and turns

Oh so unique!

The Mound City Group in southern Ohio is a 120-acre ceremonial ground that is one of the most important and well-known archaeological sites in North America, dating back at least 1,500 years.

The original site was occupied by the U.S. Army’s Camp Sherman during World War 1, when much of the original earthworks were completely destroyed to house military buildings and personnel. As a result the 23 burial mounds on the site are primarily recreations based of off 19th century field surveys. The scale and positioning of the individual earthen elements are intended to replicate the look and feel of the site before it became a military training center and indeed the National Park Service describes the site as “fully restored.” Today the vast field feels both like a dreamscape when viewers imagine existing in the distant past and like a façade empty of its’ sacred status, at the same time.
