For everyone that is new to this installation. I am traveling the U.S. bringing art to people and proposing the idea of progress. There are two meanings that stand out the most to me. Understand that life is a beautiful cycle with its ups and downs. In such a cycle it is important to continue to look forward and take the steps necessary for change, rather than waiting for it to happen. Second, the american flag branded on the back rests is a testament to reestablishing the american spirit/pride associated with craft/art/products made here. Industries are having a hard time not with just the economy but the importing of goods, as well which corresponds with our economy. Support local: produce, furniture, products, art, craft...

After starting this project it began to grow and evolve into so much more than what I initially thought. Similar to our lives it gains meaning, and depth through the experiences and people that it comes in contact with.

Exposing art to people and people to my art.
