Gaina said...

I am actually feeling sorry...for a bottle. How do you do that? Haha

Danielle Boone said...

What is the "water" made of? I like the effect.

David Mcclain said...

Water prop, very cool. I'd love to know what's written on that note inside... maybe a little post-secret action?

Jina said...

I think he should tie the string to the cork and drown in an ocean of expression instead. :)

Clytie said...

I'm with Gaina - how do you do that? Make me feel sorry for a bottle!!!

Hi Terry.
I'm from Brasil.
I'm making this work for university, and I would like to ask you some things...
Every page on the web describe your work as "art", but do you create them to be art?
And could you write a small self-biography? Because I can't find it nowhere on the web. I'd like to know things like your date and place of birth, if you are graduated in art, if you have been in any art exposition.
Sorry if my english is not so good... :~
If you decide to answer my questions, would you do it sending me an e-mail?

thanks ....

by the way, I prefer the works that you make with more wire and less objects...

Terry said...

Thanks everyone!

The water is a spray painted garbage bag. A sticky mess, but fluid-looking.

Beth Niquette said...

So very sad. But I liked it.

Norma said...

So deep. And cool. And I would have sworn that the water was made from colored sand -- am amazed that it's a spray-painted garbage bag. You continue to amaze!

P.S. the word verification for this comment is PERFXT, which pretty much sums up your blog. :)

Brenda said...

Awesome!
Deep message!

Little Scarf Girl said...

Oh no! He's keeping all of his troubles bottled up inside, and it's pushing him over the deep end. :(

Very clever!

chanief said...

Oh man, poor bottle. You are amazingly talented!!

He's such an introvert, he doesn't want anyone to read his suicide note.
