Image
  Mana Wood, Ink, Gel Medium 2" x 2" x 2" This sculpture reflects times when I'm finally able to go home from college.

The other elements are the fake flowers and plants, which my mother has plenty of, the honeycombs for the bees that come during spring back home, and the mass amount of plastic bags our family collects.
