From 4th to 22th of November, Patrick Dougherty was at ETSU to build an sculpture by bending sticks. The Sculpture consists of a number of chambers which are connected to each other with small corridors.
lots of volunteers helped to build the project. I worked there for four days. The first day was sorting the sticks by size and the other days were bending the sticks together to make woven walls of wood.
It has been a lovely experience for me. The smell of wood and bending them makes me feel I am part of nature.

The reaction of the audiences who were crossing the project were different. Some people just continue their path and did not even look at the piece. Some who were driving a car, were trying to see as much as they can while passing. Some even stop their vehicle for some moments to look more carefully. Most pedestrians were coming closer to say hello and asking what was going on and what we were trying to make.
