Alexandria Museum of Art 2013
The Elusiveness and Persistence of Harmony
(photographer: Zach Kraft)
Discarded bargeboard and posts turned into a triple (3 man) side guitar.
A lot of Mayhem ensued, interspersed with moments of unimaginable harmony and the feeling you get when students unlock a major component of understanding.This piece will be placed in public in Orleans Parish with the coordinates posted online. Play it while you can, harmony is fleeting.
