Four large pieces on another wall display a range of events, from a journey into a small town, all the way to a bicoastal cityscape. The cityscape piece, in particular, captures attention by featuring a representation of the twin towers, an old pair of tennis shoes and a pink party, against the scratchy brown cardboard.
