A 100 square foot lawn rests in the middle of the gallery. Visitors are invited to walk, sit and enjoy. This lawn, however, is made of grass which refuses its role as a passive groundcover. Sit or stand a while and the grass begins to growl, growing steadily louder until the floor shakes.

Sod Off! is the latest in a series of works exploring the emotional lives of the botanic life forms which share our space. In particular, the great American lawn, the humble groundcover which so long has been without a voice, is now given a say in its role as an underfoot organism. With every step, consider your beautiful ChemLawn; be glad it cannot speak.
