Thought you might appreciate this one — a sign (or rather, a painting of one) from artist Nathan Nadeau’s show in Providence, RI, called Time of the Signs. According to writer Bill Van Siclen, it:

“advertises something called the Samsara Motel, a place where ‘you come back over and over again.’ While the sign’s blinking lights and mid-century design conjure up images of the Vegas Strip, circa 1955, the name of the hotel points in a very different direction. (In Buddhism, ’samsara’ refers to the cycle of life, death and rebirth that precedes nirvana.)”

The show can be found at Wolcott Eco Office, at 28 Wolcott Street in Providence.
