Beneath an inverted aquarium, a found "Free" sign was used to make a stencil for dirt collected from the graveyard on the grounds of St. John’s Episcopal Church in Richmond, Virginia; the church where Founding Father Patrick Henry delivered his “Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death” speech.
Next to it is an aquarium partially filled with water from the Atlantic ocean in which a waterproofed and inverted found "Free" sign floats. The reflection of the "Free" sign mirrored in the bottom of the aquarium appears to read "Life."
