Conversations, Talk of the Town is a piece about the corrosive effects of gossip and bullying, singling out and attributing negative traits to a person or group for the purpose of silencing, intimidating, or worse. Ripples emanate from the central crucible. The floating, gold leafed, niche-like aspect of the piece references beatification or martyrdom, one historic result of communal rejection stemming from a system of persecution.
