Wunderkammern

This sculpture was from the Milwaukee Public Art Museum and showed a wooden cabinet surrounded by trees that are leaning into it. I found that is looks as though the green and life of nature is giving into man and evolution.

The green of nature

It's beauty and life

Love and innocence

Mystery and hope

A silent breeze

Blowing softly across

Whispering of history

A mystery

Of evolution and death

An innocent surrender

Bending softly

To improvement

To technology and hate

War and loss

A world of fear

A silent surrender

  1. This is very interesting. I was taken aback when I read it because the end is such a surprise. I really wanted to see the work of art to picture exactly how you were inspired by it. Where do you suppose the dark turn came from, and how was it seen in the art?
