1. Ephemeral stencils: birdseeds

    Confronting the notion of ephemeral stencils to the semantic field of tattoos. Tattoos understood as the contrary of temporary messages in both their form and their message, with words and promises such as Love, Forever, Always.
    Using the word Always for its double-meaning of repetition and eternity.
    Ephemeral stencil made with birdseeds.

    We walked in the snow for a couple of miles this morning and discussed about making a gigantic typeface in the park… someone has been faster!

    Might be easier to make it in the mountain – anyone up for it? and then take a picture from the opposite mountain!
