As with many of her other works, Finnish artist Kaarina Kaikkonen installed this piece as a site-specific installation. Working in unusual spaces both indoors and out, these in-situ works are made by assembling recycled clothing in new configurations. The garments suggest their human shape and former use, now transcending their use as fashion or protection.
A bit tone mapped by HDR, just to bring up the colors as the clothes colors are fading a bit.

For me it is very much about the human-canine connection. Today was my day at the shelter and this is just one of many hoping to find a home.

Day 72 of 2015. I'm sitting in on CoreAlign's Generative Fellows retreat this weekend at Mayacamas Ranch in Calistoga. The outgoing cohort did an individual "standout" assessment to try to understand how they best relate to their work and to others. Each archetype put together a skit to demonstrate their strengths and challenges.
This was an exercise the "connectors" put together. It was visceral and wonderful, and it demonstrated the great camaraderie this cohort has developed over the past six months.

ODC is Connection
Electric guitar cord making a musical connection. Music is such a major part of my life. It was part of the common interests hubby and I had from the beginning.
Coffee Connection in Amsterdam, NL. First two floors of the tall buildind, nice little shop, stop in for a drink... when in Amsterdam search out cafe and not coffeehouse.
Each of these sensor wires needs to make a specific connection. The wires are a jumble, but resolving one connection at a time completes the circuit.
In general, success can be achieved when we look beyond the clutter and solve one issue at a time.
At Work, It Was 10:35 PM, When One Of My Bros Broke The Silence Of Nearly 1 n Half Hour. No Music, No Talks, Our Fingers On Keyboard & Eyes On Monitor. He Suddenly Stood, Turned To Me & Asked:
Him: Bro, Do You Ever Get Inspired ?
Me: Nodded My Head To Say Yes.
Him: By Which Type Of People ?
Me: (Jokingly) By Real Bad People :P
He Thought For A While & Again Said, "You Know, In Life We Can Get Inspired From Everyone - Each 1 Of Us. Just See The Good Sides Of Them, Praise Them & Get Inspired." Little Later, He Added, "Let Me Again Think On This Topic Tonight & We Shall Discuss Some Other Day Again."
The Time He Was Saying All This, I Was Cropping The Above PIc.
Special Connection About This Pic & The Above Conversation Is That I Alwasy Have to Pass This Giant Naked (Since It's Winter) Tree, Which is Somewhat 20 Ft. Above From The Roadside & The Tree Itself Is 20 Feet High. Now, Imagine How Do I have To Look At Its Tip (20+20=40 ft) From The Road. This Tall Tree & Sky At The Background, They Always Inspire Me ! :)

A continuation of my series.
I am continuing to explore the nature of self and environment, of cause and effect. Grasping, reaching for connections is something that doesn't -- and shouldn't -- end.
I rescued a very pregnant dog from starvation, found homes for all 7 of her babies and gave her a forvever home with me. This photo was taken the day after the puppies were born.
(EDIT)
Mega-elaboration - A chuch, graveyard, and trailer (home) are located a short distance from my house. Since I moved in (2004), I had seen various dogs at the trailer and around the church and graveyard. Once, I saw a litter of older puppies running in an adjacent field, and one of these pups stuck. When I first saw it, I thought it looked just like a little bear cub...solid black and tailless. Months later, I spotted another dog hanging out with the bear cub. As I drove by one day, I noticed that the newer dog was looking a little bony, which made me wonder if bear dog was skinny underneath her bear fur. The cemetery was spread out, and so the following day I pulled up with a bag of dog food and poured a ton out at the furthest side of the lot. The pair of them ate like fiends and my heart sank to think that after about a year, I'd never noticed that the little bear dog was so hungry...couldn't see her ribs under all that fur, like I could the newer short-haired dog.
Every day after I stopped to feed the dogs. Two months went by and I had developed a rapport with bear dog...petting it when it came to eat. It was always so sweet and its inch-long tail would wag and wag. One day soon when I stopped to feed the pair, bear dog rolled over onto its back, and I realized it was a she-bear, and was also pregnant.
The next day I stopped at the trailer. I asked the man who lived there if I could take his dog and pay to get it spayed. His response was that he didn't have any dogs. I pointed to the two dogs sitting at the bottom of his front steps where I stood and said "These aren't your dogs?"...and again his response was the very same. "So you wouldn't mind if I took her and got her spayed?" He said he didn't mind at all.
Confused...but great! The appointment was for a couple days later. The evening before on my way home when I stopped to feed the dogs, I slipped a leash, a la Cesar Milan style, onto beardog and walked her to my car and put her in the back seat. That evening, after the dogknapping, she ate phat and got lots and lots of pets.
At 7am the next morning, the vet came out of the exam room to tell me that bear dog was due to give birth at any moment now. I'd only been around a pregnant cat once before...never any other pregnant animal or human, so I had no idea she was so far along.
My mom agreed to foster bear dog for 3 weeks, and the above photo was taken at her house. She named the dog Liberty (Libby for short) and took 5-star care of her and her 7 babies for those 3 weeks, before they came to live with me. As a dog lover, I'm glad I got the experience of raising 7 poop machines, although it was CERTAINLY a ton of work. Around week 5, Chuck and I had a photo session with the puppies, and I made color flyers with the puppy info that Chuck hung up on campus, and that I used for an online ad. Within 4 days of the ad, all the puppies had homes. It was incredible. The people that adopted the puppies seemed really warm and loving, and they all spent about 30 minutes at the house, getting to know the puppies. The last couple that came adopted the final 2 puppies together, which meant I didn't have to keep the last pup, nor did I keep King Kong...the giant male who was over twice the size of all his siblings, and that I had fallen in love with. :)
Libby has continued living out the 5-star doggie life with us and she will for the rest of her life. I continue to stop every day and feed the other dog, who still lives at the trailer. If it's raining, the dog gets McD's chicken sandwiches. I've certainly fattened it up through two winters, though a couple weeks ago, I noticed it was definitely a female dog as well, which means I want to get it spayed too...
This other dog looks like a pit mix...its never come close enough to me to touch, although it will run to me when I slow down to throw sandwiches out from my car, and she watches me from the trailer's driveway, tail wagging, when I put out dry kibble. I have a rather calm/submissive pack of dogs already...7...all rescues, with a grumpy old female heeler and a rehabilitated Chow and I don't want to mess up the flow with a pit I don't know. It might turn out to be the most gentle dogs I've ever known, but without experience owning that breed, I don't feel comfortable. I also don't feel comfortable taking it to the shelter. I just won't. I'm not sure what to do. And I know it's not my "problem", but I pass it every day, so I want to help. Maybe I should make another flyer. (Supremely low-res upload of the puppy flyer.) :)
