Artist, American, born 1963

The image shows a group of seven people standing in front of a wooden structure with hay and stalls numbered 23 and 24 visible behind them. All individuals are dressed in cowboy attire, featuring button-up shirts, jeans, and large belt buckles, with six of them wearing white cowboy hats and one in a dark hat being held horizontally by the others. They appear to be engaged in friendly interaction, as the standing individuals support the person in the striped shirt and dark hat by holding their arms and legs. The person being held is lifted in a way that results in both feet pointing upwards while facing forward. The background consists of wooden walls and support beams, typically found in stables or barns, and the ground ahead is bare soil or concrete with some patches of grass.
