At some point I'd had enough of trying to fit my art through small subway doors. It always seemed like people were thinking, "get a truck". I couldn't stand to see my art getting rusty in the yard anymore.I am not saying that artists shouldn't let their work get rusty, I just don't want mine getting rusty. If I am going to make something, I want it to be recycled. I either pack it up, or make it out of things found in it's vicinity. I am not going to leave my art in basements anymore. I want to fold it up and lean it in the kitchen and not trip over it. If I feel like having it around again, I can build it in Greenland, or in the bedroom.This is where my art is going……in a nice bag, and maybe to Greenland
