Bed 1998. Wooden bed frames, acrylic fish tank, fish, filter, water. 20” x 35” x 77”

It is where fantasy and reality meet, thus the idea behind the piece. The idea for a fish tank inside a bed frame was inspired by a friend's waterbed. He told me that his bed had a leak in it. This made me realize that the bed is meant to be a place that brings one comfort and security, but can also cause one a sense of uneasiness and feeling trapped.
