Great News

I have been awarded a solo exhibition at the Erik Lauritzen Gallery, at Truckee Meadows Community College in Reno, Nevada during February/March 2011. That is truly wonderful news! My goal is to collect 100 last cigarettes and GROW my Wall of Honor – it will be so beautiful.

Also, I have been collecting materials for my next phase of this project – to create an installation. I just have to firm up my ideas before I start. Also because I have no idea where it might be exhibited, how I would store, move it, I am kind of in a quandary as to what materials I should use and how to keep the cost down. I’m excited though :-)

I can’t believe it – my thirteen month project has drawn to an end and I am happily smokefree – it is pretty hard to believe. I have to decide now what to do – I feel I should continue with the project because there is so much I want to do with regard to smoking in general. I’m planning on applying for some grants again to see if I can make my project more ambitious and turn it into an installation. Fingers crossed that I succeed.

In the meantime I have been working on Erica’s last cigarette and here is a work-in-progress picture. After nearly pulling my hair out a few times today with it, it is finally done. I’ll post the finished product on Monday when Erica celebrates her 7 week anniversary. Congratulations Erica – you are doing great!
