I love this: inspired by the Guerilla Art Kit. Makes me think about how I always say if I were to win the lotto I would just fill up envelopes with money and a note saying “Keep this, it’s meant for you” and then leave them places, like on sidewalks or library books. Only with Hula Seventy’s project they were still able to leave behind treasures but they didn’t need to have monetary value. I kind of like to believe that the messages they left behind make their way to the people that most need those particular messages. This also reminds me of an Artomat artist who makes these little sculpted eggplants with quotes on them. It seems to me that every. single. person. who gets one, gets one that has great significance to that particular person. And they come from a vending machine so you never know what it will say before you buy it. I really want one, I wonder what machines she sells from.
Note to self: I really have got to get more artomat pieces sent out.
Ha! That reminds me of a time when I found a 20 dollar bill walking to middle school. But I was afraid to take because I thought the owner would come back looking for it so I left it there and decided if it was still there after school I’d take it. I can’t remember if it was…probably not. If only it’d had a note on it that said it was meant for me…
