International artists install a surreal show at the Mattress FactoryNews from Pittsburgh Post Gazette:
A slumped form resembling a small animal — shorn, leg amputated to a metallic bone-like spur, with ambiguous protrusions where a head would normally attach — lies at the entry of an installation at the Mattress Factory.
