Put My Mouth Where It Is

Sacred and Profane

Words can't describe the amazingness that is Sacred and Profane. This word-of-mouth event places art in the context of an abandoned WWII-era army bunker tucked discreetly in the center of the beautiful Peaks Island Land Preserve on Peaks Island, Maine. Alicia and I installed "You are (on) an island." in a flooded room at the center of the battery.

Thanks to every single person that put time and effort into making the 2011 Sacred and Profane the mind-blowing and beautiful experience that it was. Super-huge thanks to Patrick Bolduc at Beacon Neon for the construction and installation of the neon letters. Thanks to Tom and Nick for the long, wet hours they put in to construct the scaffolding. And thanks to Jeff Stockbridge for his help de-installing the piece.

Eternity in Italy!

Right now, Eternity is in a show called "O'Clock" at the Triennale Design Museum in Milan, Italy. Alicia and I flew out to install the piece last week and had an amazing experience. More info at www.triennaledesignmuseum.it. Also, check out some images and a great article about the show on designboom.

A Definition I Agree With

"Mostly, I believe an artist doesn't create something, but is there to sort through, to show, to point out what already exists, to put into form and sometimes reformulate it...I didn't invent anything, I indicated." - Annette Messager
