Nest


This nest I made is nestled in a bunch of vines on a beautiful little entryway to a childrens' playground.

My First Twiggy House


This was my first Twiggy House. I put it there last Tuesday. Though in a state of mild disarray, it is still in place, nestled in the roots of a tree near a trail in Central Park. This is what it looks like today.

Twiggy House




In the crevice of a rock near the Central Park carousel you might find this twiggy dwelling which I made today. If you stop by to visit, you will also hear the pipe organ from the carousel blurting out recognizable tunes like 'Ding Dong the Witch is Dead' and 'If I Only Had A Brain'. There will be children climbing on the top of the rock and couples reading in the shade of the trees.

Twiggy Art


Here is a little imaginary dwelling I built in Central Park today. It reminds me of a beaver dam. I used twigs and sticks that I gathered in my beach bucket from the area directly around the bench. The inspiration for these sculptures comes from the miniature imaginary homes I built on a rock behind my house as a kid. Kah Leong once shot a model on this same bench, though I didn't know it till I showed him the picture.
If you want to look for it, it's off a pathway just below Belvedere Castle.
