BOXES beyond borders

Place Hotel

Awareness goes back and forth between the reception of the piece of fake chocolate and the reception of the model of a seemingly dislocated house.

Question:  Would you possibly, lost in thought, make little balls out of the wrapping paper of the chocolate that you have just eaten and/or ever tried to penetrate the deeper meaning of the many ways of reoccurring walls?

My Grandmother

Coca-Cola Box Project.

As long as I can remember my grandmother in Mexico always bought seven bottles of Coca-Cola a week. She has one bottle a day: a few ounces in the morning mixed with two raw eggs; a few ounces with lunch; and the rest with her dinner. She never drinks water at all, just the Coke. She is ninety-two years old.
