Marilyn Dammann


From the late Marilyn Dammann in 1999. On the reverse she has written - " I had to get creative with my trash in May - a severe drought, and burn ban. I cleaned up my storgae shed and found an enormous pile of boxes at the back which has been accumulating for years. I smashed them, flattened them, stuffed them into a very large box, put it in the orchard to slowly disintegrate. In the meantime - it's art ( because i say so). This photo taken in May before the green stuff grew up all around it - mounted on a piece of genuine trash."
