The Love Shack is a full-scale installation based on the B-52's hit song, Love Shack. This installation was commissioned by the Savannah College of Art & Design for The We Hear You, Georgia! exhibition, 2004(Red Gallery, Savannah, Georgia). The exhibition was a collaboration of the college and the Georgia Music Hall of Fame and featured a live performance by the B-52s at Trustee's Theater. The Love Shack was constructed in my (late) Grandfather's barn in Whitwell, Tennessee. The Love Shack installation was made possible by Savannah College of Art & Design|, Professor Katherine Sandoz, the late Tracy Haymans, and my loving family & friends.
