Seen in the Rest Home
A stuffed figure rocking on a jawbone, metronome
All on unused game board
Dale Copeland

Perhaps the bleakest thing I've ever made.
The jawbone makes a rocking chair for that figure with the fixed smile, the fixed stare.
Give the jawbone a touch and it will rock to and fro, but not for very long.
Whereas the metronome will keep ticking the time away for a long long time.

I was just visiting, but that's a scary future.
