Description

Projecting above the cantilevered hay hood, this barn with lightning rod displays a rural phantasmagorical scene. The blue barn offers a dry respite from the potential violence above. Splashes of color slam onto this thin protective layer and keep the unseen contents safe and compartmentalized. These types of hay hoods, and their companion hay lofts, have increasingly become a relic of the past. Thus, we envision the barn itself as only a fleeting vision.
