The Nest of Recollection

by Matthew Schultz, Kevan Christiaens

Contact Email: mrschultz@gmail.com

The Nest of Recollection is a multi-part structure dedicated to the evolution of man, the evolution of the environment and the evolution of a person from child to adult. The Nest is 16 ft wide and built from childhood memories, wagons, action figures and broken hearts. The collage of sculptures covering the nest invokes all of the joys and pains of childhood. The experiences that shape an innocent child into a complex adult. The Nest sits on the remnance of a once mighty tree. Cut for progress the tree is still imposing at 17 ft tall. The tree clings to existance telling the world it will not go quietly. Inside the tree is a small room dedicated to the Bird-Man, the creator of the nest. How did the Bird-Man evolve. Was it natural, or a perversion of science?
