About the Piece
I made this piece in
2008 before I was diagnosed with liver cancer. In retrospect this
piece adds an even deeper appreciation of the body’s ability to rid
itself of urine waste. I wonder if my body knew in 2008 that my
liver was sick. At this time I had a blood test that showed a slight
elevation. My doctor reassured me that the discrepancy was caused by
medication I was taking. He was wrong, very wrong. On the side of
this piece, gothic windows suggest the spirituality of a church, and
below them are public toilets, like the ones found in Rome.
