FROST PARK: COUNTERPANE


Frost Park Chalk Off 5:28 seemed to have a theme of either partisanship or bipartisanship.  Therefore, Troy's Work Table tried to play within those themes while also revisiting elements of one of his favorite chapters of Moby-Dick, "The Counterpane."

The counterpane quilt became the flag attached to the "pole" of the harpoon, with Queequeg and Ishmael merged into a "bipartisan whale," all basking in the light of a lamp fueled by whale oil.

Oh, obsession!
