RIO Watermelon” brings together ordinary objects—a slice of watermelon, a Rio matchbox, a pipe, and a bottle of water—set on a small round table. In Beerhorst’s hands, these humble elements hum with presence. The watermelon, ripe and dripping with summer sweetness, becomes a counterpoint to the cool glass and the dark bowl of the pipe. The Rio matchbox whispers of fire and ignition, of sparks that set stories into motion. Together, they balance the ephemeral with the eternal, embodying Beerhorst’s ongoing dialogue between sustenance, ritual, and remembrance.
