"The concept behind the porch is to define space seen as interior and exterior. An extension of the mansion that is connected with the beautiful New Mexican landscape looking outward welcoming all visitors. I didn't want to create a closed space but a space that looks to nature, to connect us to a larger picture of political, social and ecological systems. The beautiful New Mexican skies are seen as dawn and dusk to symbolize the start and end to a new day, an endless cycle of life. The empty chair symbolizes equality for all who sit at the Governor's table. The four portals look to the four directions, seasons, and stages of life. Motifs of the Mansion are embellished throughout the design."
