A preliminary sketch for a project that would become the construction and slow deconstruction of the heavily air conditioned sculpture called the hut/chapel.  Cheap-cheap-cheapness prevented the roof from being this giant jagged fuck-all slant overhang.

It would have been great to secure a backhoe and bury  a 10ft section of the bottom slanting roof into the ground. The ramp roof design was junked and a material that fought with the air conditioner showed up one day from storage. I ended up using a 1/2 inch flat clear acrylic roof. Please know that it's very difficult to water seal a flush mounted horizontal skylight.  Luckily the wall unit roaring away at full blast kept the hut/chapel dryish. 

The first version is depicted in the top left image.  Notice the large satellite dishes on the left.  These dishes used to broadcast Russian television to the local hollers.  A tractor trailer full of ultra blue bucknell folding chairs existed directly behind the hut/chapel.
                                                                       
The above image represents the second to last stage of existence for the the hut/chapel.  Admire the snow hat left upon the acrylic roof creating a certain winter shade for anyone willing to sit on an old rusty stool. The wind took care of the final stage of this project.  The hut/chapel was later reconstructed for the annual show at the Samek in Lewisburg.  The air conditioner and it's corresponding removal from the hut was included with the show.  Many heads were scratched during the group opening.  Many cheese cubes were also consumed.

Early sketch that I drew aspects from to add bits and pieces to tables using hand logged and milled lumber that wasn't dry enough at the time and cracked forming wide fissures in the small tables. (Images Pending)
