Monthly Statement:
April 2006
It seems appropriate to place flowers on the alter. When the cherry blossoms dried and dropped they became part of the accumulation.

Process: Over the course of a year I will be burning candles and permitting the wax to accumulate on a makeshift altar. The candles are burned in remembrance of someone or with the intent of a prosperous wish for oneself, others, or the world. The public is invited (through viral email, post cards and internet postings) to contribute candles with a wish or remembrance attached. In addition to accumulating the wax as I burn the candles, I will also be documenting what compelled people to contribute to the project.

If you want to participate in this project, send a white votive or tea lite to:
