totally wiz!

so many collaborative efforts in the world!

take this beautiful bridge for example, made even more beautiful wrapped in acres of golden fabric, like a beautiful gift from Christo and Jean Claude to everyone who sees it. like their wrapped walkways, it's totally Oz (Wizard of, not the country).





one of my alltimehandsdownfavourite sculptors is  Do Ho Suh (i'm not going to lazy-link everything for you, but i'm so excited about his contributions!) hailing from South Korea and lives in NYC.




beautiful, intelligent, witty, his work kind of reminds me of you!

jean jackets.

ok i have an idea. what if i take something that already exists, and add some extra bits and pieces that make it even better?


like this jean jacket.  it's much more radical like this.

you can do the same with anything.
i saw this amazing red phone box, made even better with this delicate reminder taped to the side.

i didn't call my mother. sorry mum! i love you!

this normal old bit of wall gave me 8 extra lives. you can walk past as many times as you like - unlimited lives!


just think, all these everyday things are actually even better with extra bits added to them.
