Carkeek Park Outdoor Art Exhibit: Heaven and Earth

Stephen Rock

Built by the Rock Brothers, Executive Decision is a dining table made of salvaged fir. Hand crafted with a modern design, the uncured wood was allowed to warp when drying. The table was then altered by driving a large wedge of rough wood through the surface to create an artistic statement about the choices we make and why.

Three additional picnic tables will be placed at equal distances around the central piece. Each of the picnic tables would have landscape sized boulders placed into cutouts on top of the tables. This would create an additional scale to the installation and push the conversation further regarding how issues, once laid on a table, can hardly be ignored.
