Monthly Statement:
March 2006
A grapefruit skin arrives to ripeness with a certain character
(“character is made by rising above one’s misfortunes”).
The meat is a paleish purpley pink, the skin yellow-a pink-flushed green yellow, “flawed” with stains, scars, and faint, greenish, bruisy looking patches of irregular shape, resting under the surface.

3/06 Notes/Journal
I decided going forward to fill the whole studio, all the walls with the yellow taxonomy only. I’m “going for the big one”.
Its about volume.
Its about creating a real yellow fog, as strong a force as entering a Richard Serra sculpture, yellow that fills space dynamically, an enveloping yellow. Still a place where you will get drawn to the individual items and note the pang of the poignancy of their particularity, And the recontextualization as you move from hub to hub. Its about maximizing the vastness of the context.

Process: I will collect yellow things which will be mostly litter and other refuse of our urban environment, on walks. I will collect them as I go about the normal business of my life.

 

Accumulate: Yellow things

Accumulator: Paul Baumann
