Present Piano ("Contemporary Art Auction Record" hack within Growth Hacking series)
Description

These works make heavy use of recycled fabrics and flowers as a metaphor for growth.
One of my favorite affirmations right now is: I celebrate each stage of growth. When we set goals we plant seeds. When we plant seeds we acknowledge that time allows the unfolding. We do not put the seed in the ground and return to it an hour later disappointed that our seed is not yet a rose. Nor do we look at a tiny green sprout and belittle it for not yet being a tomato. We see the tiny green sprout as evidence that we are on the way to blooming, to achieving our goals. Yet, we tend to measure ourselves always against the rose, berating ourselves for where we are not yet. I’ve been trying to remember to look at my career with the same love and patience, celebrating growth in all its nascent stages. That’s what these works are about. And that’s what I want to share with you.

Oh yah, and I am using the images of these works to hack search results for “contemporary art auction records.” Works in this series are already in the permeate collection of a museum in Austria and have been exhibited and acquired in König Galerie in Berlin and bitforms gallery in New York City.
