March, 2004 | Oil on thirty-one 11" x 14" Canvasses | 59" x 104"
March is a single work composed of thirty-one 11 x 14 inch canvasses painted on the shore of Lake Michigan at Leone Park Beach in Chicago, Illinois between 9 and 11 a.m. during the month of March 2004. The thirty-one canvasses are exhibited on the wall in a calender-like block.
March offers itself not only as a record of the sometimes subtle and sometimes bizarre day to day changes of light and atmospheric condition observed, but also as a meditation on the fluidity of natural phenomena and the passage of time.
