Afghani War Rug

This is an installation made of spices arranged in the pattern of an Afghani war rug. The blue is poppyseeds, the yellow is tumeric, the red is cayenne pepper, etc. Like a Buddhist sand mandala, this piece was temporary, created in five days during the Art Chicago expo in 2003 at Navy Pier. At the conclusion of the show, the piece was printed and remaining spices swept up.
