VO by Mari Weiss

“I am first and foremost a sculptor. Dreams come to my mind which I must bring to fruition. For better or worse, fail or

succeed in contriving visions of my mind, the true success is transforming these musings into reality. Thriving to me is to

keep creating. I use photographs to hold these thoughts and dreams. My collection of photographs composes the

catacombs of my mind.”

Michael Garlington

DESCRIPTION:

"Wheel Chair of Babel is a spotted, scratched black and white photograph of a man seated in a wheeled cart resting on dirt and gravel.
A wheeled cart is on our right. A man sits on top of the cart. The man is large and white with a dark bushy beard. He wears modern casual clothes and has a helmet on his head. The helmet has a tall crest on top like a Centurion’s headdress. His right hand holds ropes that drape down from the cart to the left. These ropes become reins for a small, lizard-like creature made of sticks. In the distance are the blurry silhouettes of tall modern buildings and trees with a blank sky overhead.
Two of the cart’s wheels are visible. They are wooden, with unevenly shaped spokes and rims. The wheels have cat and monkey masks for hubcaps. The cart is piled high with dolls, toys and bones. The arm of a guitar peeks out from under a blanket. At the top of the pile perches a rocking chair. The man steadies its rockers with his raised left hand." -A. Laura Brody
