Artist, American, born 1956

A solid black silhouette in the shape of a house is in the foreground, intersected by a vertical line of a utility pole and a slanted smaller pole. The background is a grayscale suburban scene with a building, flag, road, cars, and trees. The silhouette resembles generic house shapes often seen in diagrams or simple drawings, creating a contrast with the realistic setting behind it.
