The Dining Room circa 2009
The Dining Room, Summer 2012
The Husband did random-width planks of whitewashed
hemlock for the wall, with corresponding lines of painted plaster on the
adjacent wall. He brought the 18th century sofa to our
relationship at its start 33 years ago. It was purchased 40 years ago in Belgium. The frame
is carved with flowers & seashells & the piece is covered in burlap with vanilla colored leather cushions. It stands on a hand-knotted rug from
Afghanistan. Above the sofa we showcase our collection of shadow-boxed
snapshots from the 1930s of men being affectionate.
This display of artistry and good taste is cruel.
