OAC IdentifierCOA; 78-9
TitleA Water Pipe Dream or Is It?
Artwork DescriptionA black and white, surrealistic rendering of what appears to be a pipe form that contains two sets of stairs and three distinct water droplets clinging to it's underside, which also reflect the context of the space. Harsh light emits from two different areas in the background, one of which appears to be a doorway opening to an undefined space.
