Weed or Wish

Entitled 'Weed or Wish”,' this 3D statement art piece invites viewers to ponder the delicate balance between reality and aspiration. Guarded by a stanchion red rope, the over sized dandelion stands as a symbol of fleeting dreams and untapped potential, challenging onlookers to consider whether it represents a weed to be discarded or a wish to be cherished. Against the backdrop of a weathered brick wall adorned with graffiti asking 'Weed or Wish?,' the juxtaposition of urban decay and natural wonder sparks introspection. The hand-painted leaves, meticulously crafted from cut pieces of leftover resin drippings, infuse the piece with a sense of recycled beauty and resilience. Above, dandelion buds float into a mesmerizing sky crafted from glass mosaic, symbolizing the fragility and transience of dreams against the infinite expanse of possibility.
