I completely understood because, you know, I've been there. In summer 2000.

My project was about something completely different, and I must say, a bit more complex. But my hat is off to the two artists. I can't really say much about their cheeky video. My work, shown here was about connection, both to the land I found myself in and the artist, Janine Antoni, who had walked here before me. It was an ascetic reaction to a self indulgent atmosphere. It was about evidence, about tracing the paths of others, about redrawing discarded elements, about stating emphatically what is important to me. It was about path-making, making one's mark, but also understanding it shall eventually be displaced. This work was made in the last few weeks of the Skowhegan class of 2000.
I'm glad you've turned your back on the nefarious killing of grass, and instead have chosen to use your powers for good.
