Structure displaying 18 videos of "Yule Log" films. Logos of each of the monitors have been removed and replaced with 3d printed words for the first three stanzas of Carol Muske-Dukes poem "Wildfire Moon (Summer, L.A. 2016)": Pale ash falls from the sky. On the lanai, a child finger-paints a big red sun, twin to the one that burns above: mirror on fire. What does the sun see, through pages of smoke? Hills: gargoyles, winged.
