These are my images from both my home installation and the art department installation. I used animal crackers and frosting to mimick ant patterns for different effects.
The first two images are at my home. I included Boric acid (ration 1:1) to the frosting as a creative exterminating solution for household ants.
At the art department, I chose the Sept. 11th memorial to play with the animal crackers and frosting up the adobe "tower." There was a gentler feel as the aim was to let the ants enjoy the food in their own environment. However, the piece does stop rather abruptly which after hearing the critique I felt was all the more appropriate. The piece is dedicated to Julianna McCourt, age 4 from New London CT.
