49 crosses

My husband Johnny recently exhibited "Abstraction is Homeless" at Manila Contemporary along with artists Argie Bandoy, Jonathan Olazo & Bernard Pacquing. His particular work, entitled "Content" was comprised of 49 crosses made of weathered steel and wood. This will also be the concept for our Halloween Decor in October; creating a makeshift cemetery in the subdivision. Will make sure to document people's reactions... Happy Halloween in advance.
