Cast in resin and encased in concrete, these two disasters are ensconced in art and set behind. All the things of value we thought we were collecting this last decade might just now be shattered junk, and it's best to seal them in resin like prehistoric bugs caught in amber. All those sweet things we thought we were tasting have perhaps turned into concrete in our mouths. In both are stories of a decade of gain, loss, struggle and, perhaps here at the end of the road in L.A., redemption.

He should build a throne of iron as an altar for Krom.

It's a shame that this article is such a puff piece, practically written by a PR firm. I wonder if it is because the writer is on staff at Laxart, the organization that funded the light on top of the Standard.

"All the things of value we thought we were collecting this last decade might just now be...junk"

While this line is meant to refer to the shattered pottery shards and coat racks Golia employs in his works, in another decade or so it may also apply to these works themselves.
