Title: "Devouring Worlds"
BY KINDNESS GRACE
A papier-mâché octopus coils its tentacles around a discarded globe, symbolizing the relentless consumption of Earth’s resources. With only fragments of land and sea remaining, the piece highlights the consequences of unchecked greed. The gold base reflects the lure of wealth, contrasting with the destruction left in its wake. Devouring Worlds serves as a striking commentary on the cost of consumerism and the fragility of our planet.

Mister Rogers TV Fish Tank
There was a time when you’d sit cross-legged on the floor, the soft hum of the TV filling the room as you waited for Mr. Rogers to step through the door and change into his cardigan. This vintage 1959 Zenith Space Command TV now holds a different kind of magic—a 29-gallon fish tank, alive with wonder. With a heartfelt Mr. Rogers theme, it whispers of simpler days, of kindness on the screen and make-believe that felt real. More than décor, it’s a warm invitation to slow down, remember, and believe in a world where neighbors always feel like friends.

Title: “The Call of the Deep”
BY KINDNESS GRACE
The ship sailed boldly into uncharted waters, its crew dreaming of treasures untold. But the ocean was not as it seemed. As the sun dipped below the horizon, a massive sea monster—crafted from forgotten things—rose from the depths, its eyes gleaming with ancient knowledge. It wrapped its mighty limbs around the ship, pulling it toward the abyss. The crew struggled, but the sea was relentless. As they sank deeper, they realized: the monster was not their enemy. It was a guardian of the ocean, reclaiming what was lost. The Call of the Deep reminds us: the ocean is not infinite. What we cast away comes back. The choices we make today could change the journey for tomorrow.

The Oregon Trail Computer Fish Tank (Sold)
There was a time when the soft hum of a computer and the glow of a green screen meant one thing—you were about to embark on the Oregon Trail. Sitting in a classroom, fingers hesitantly pressing the keys, you weren’t just learning a game; you were learning a whole new world. This transformed 1980s computer monitor now holds a fully functional fish tank, its neon green glow bringing back those first steps into technology. A playful nod to childhood, it’s a reminder of the days when computers were a mystery, learning was an adventure, and every journey felt epic. And just like you once did, the fish inside will be experiencing the Oregon Trail too—hopefully with fewer broken wagon wheels and far less dysentery!

Title: "MY CIRCUS, MY MONKEYS." (SOLD)
BY Angela Haythorpe
This captivating piece, crafted entirely from recycled materials, captures the chaotic yet delicate balance of managing multiple roles in life. Drawing inspiration from the theme of a circus, it portrays the constant tension of walking a tightrope while juggling responsibilities, all while trying to keep tabs on mischievous monkeys—an act of constant focus and adjustment.Each element depends entirely on the system to stay upright and stay in motion—any unanticipated or unforeseen factor attempting to remove or adjust a single function risks zapping the entire system out of balance, destabilizing the intricate harmony. The playful yet precarious design invites viewers to reflect on the circus-like act of holding everything together, where even the smallest disruption threatens to send it all crashing down. It’s a powerful reminder of the resilience, creativity, and focus required to thrive amidst life’s beautiful chaos.

BY Angela Haythorpe
This piece captures the wild joy of springtime play—where new life blooms alongside hidden danger. A grand Venus flytrap, rooted in a gold urn, stretches its curious petals skyward, its stems laced with spiderwebs turned into swings, ladders, and secret hideouts. Children in vintage storybook costumes—dressed as ladybugs, butterflies, ants, and flies—delight in the wonder of it all. Some dance atop the blossoms, while others peek mischievously from the plant’s open jaws. Crafted from recycled materials and filled with nostalgic charm, this piece celebrates fearless play in the face of the unknown—where laughter grows in even the sharpest of places.
