While Mary and Alex caulked the seams between the large TRIANGLES, Peter and I installed the plant containers around the base platform of the Flock House at Bemis.<\/p>\n

At first Peter and I wanted to hang the planters on the walls of the Flock House at Bemis. Then\u00a0Alex pointed out that putting holes in the walls for so many planters would let in water and weaken the structure. He then suggested we use the periphery of the foundation platform. We studied the back of the container, finding two holes below the dirt level that could hold a screw head. \u00a0Peter designed a jig that let him mark with a pencil the place to drill\u00a0holes in\u00a0the foundation wood. He then spiraled the screws into place.<\/p>\n

I hung the plants and helped him distribute\u00a0them evenly along the periphery of the south and east walls.<\/p>\n

The building next to the Flock House is the Okada\u00a0Sculpture Facility at Bemis. The main gallery building at Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts is in the tall brick building in the background, across the paving stone street found in the Old Market.<\/p>\n

At 4 pm a\u00a0KMTV news crew arrived to interview Mary and Amanda. \u00a0If you look in the background of some of these clips, you will see me wearing my wide brimmed\u00a0hat, helping Alex grout the TRIANGLE seams.<\/p>\n
