A cross between a Dynosphere made in 1932 and a human hamster wheel, this is another Val from the series: Vehicles for Another Landscape. The words Hardplace and Rock are carved in Braille on each side. I am inside and by walking on it's crossbeams, I'm able to navagate the wheel going from one end of the Gallery to the next placing the viewers in between a Rock and a Hardplace.

From the Soap Box series, Between a Rock and a Hard Place is a scale model of a larger work that includes me inside. Attached to the wall, the piece will rotate as I shift from the Rock section to the Hardplace section.
The shape of the Soap Box is derived from cutting the wood into the contours of the words Rock and Hardplace.
