Caleb Myers

By Vivianne Carey

At first I thought fluffy clouds and crystal rain would be good with these umbrellas, but Little Voice whispered to me Caleb Myers, a song by Gillian Welch, and I instantly knew what it meant. Chains and broken bottles!Caleb Myers threw his whiskey bottle down and was in the process of raping a young woman when she grabbed a broken bottle neck and drew it across his neck “fine as any blade”and killed him. She sings, “your ghost is going to wear them rattling chains”. I have 10 of these umbrellas and I envision all ten in an installation.
