PUBLIC INSTALLATION
Stand on Target and Look Up
Chalk on sidewalk and passersby
I drew a target outside of my apartment and attempted to get the attention of passersby. To get them to look up, I either used a sign to instruct them to "Stand on target and look up" or I simply called to them out my window. These photos document the unusual reactions from people during this experiment.

Lost and Found book
4" x 6" / 100 pages
This book is the end result of a public experiment called Lost and Found. This experiment involved leaving 88 handmade 8" x 9" wood blocks all over the city of San Francisco. Each wood block contained one photo transfer image and either the word "lost" or "found." On the back was written "Take it or leave it. If you want to talk about this piece, meet me in Washington Square Park..." A specific time and date was also included. The book documents the places that I left the wood blocks, as well as the experience of meeting people to discuss the work.
