Trees on Wheels, 1998
These collaborators have produced a set of six cartoony, three-dimensional trees, each in its own terra-cotta pot on wheels. The leafless plants have serpentine trunks and limbs and are covered in a dark green feltlike fuzz. One appears to pass through a wall. They are comical and enigmatic.
