MeandHer
Lenna Peterson + Lisa Peterson
Me and Her made this.

MeandHer recycles, reuses, and restores elements of both of our 1 + 1 = one 2004 pieces. We used the cattle feeders and clay pipes from Circles of Fire. The pavers and potted plants reference the labyrinth from We Grew a Garden; the pavers and the chives come from the garden itself. The dang hangles are made from the bolts that once held the cattle feeders together.

MeandHer nestles into the woods, spiraling into and out of the shady avenue of trees. One can meander from the path and return to it, and unlike the labyrinth of the Minotaur, this is a friendly path, inviting you to sit and rest along the journey.


Deep gratitude goes to Brandon O'Brien, Michael Roseman, Clifford Peterson, and Isabelle Peterson for their considerable efforts in the creation of MeandHer.
