Shrine on West Burnside...







Thursday night on my way home I came upon this cardboard shrine. What is it an ode to? It is a cardboard box, or at least part of one with images of storybook covers, dried flowers and an entire wing of a bird attached to the top left.
While grabbing my morning Americano at the coffeehouse I inquired about the appearance of the shrine and all were as inquisitive of its sudden appearance as I was. I am curious to see how long it will remain on display on the sidewalk of NW Trinity. The consensus among the baristas and myself is that we were not going to touch it as it looked and smelled less than sanitary.
Perhaps it is just a low budget installation piece.
