A corner view of the exhibition space with the book Detroit Is.. propped on a pedestal atop a black runner cloth. The right wall shows a simplified map of my childhood neighborhood in black and red, and the left wall reads "Detroit is... a complicated city to love, an easy city love, and not an easy city to love."

A multimedia sculpture of a decomposing deer surrounded by moss. The deer lies on its side in a fetal position with its legs curled in front of it and its ribcage exposed, showing the dark red flesh and ribs inside. Its skull is angular and off-white, with rows of uneven teeth and empty eye sockets. A small yellow bird is perched on one of the antlers. The deer lies on a bed of green moss, which crawls up into the interior of the ribcage, the floor of which is covered by thick vegetation and grasses, some of which is painted with glitter and soft pastels of pink, blue, and purple. This mossy world inside the ribcage is scattered with sparkling iridescent stones and small fairy lights that are hidden among the vegetation. Small shiny beads hang from the “ceiling” of the ribcage on clear strings, and are lit by the lights inside.
