It was very nice getting to meet you. Your piece was great :) I thought you might enjoy my Moleskine sketch of you sitting inside the China Museum: http://kgillart.blogspot.com/2010/10/10-17-10-matt-bua-sitting-inside-his.html
Today we walked the park to see how the sculptures were fairing. So sad to see most of your china pieces were gone. Also missing was the "dream catcher" from Justin Lane's piece.
The woven wood structures were holding strong and beautiful.
Hey Pamela,
Glad to were able to visit it in all its glory.
I have a piece stuck in My cob wall in my upstate new york abode...
that's the way of a high security museum

The yellow flower, its common names (Velvetleaf). Some of the other common names for this species include Butterprint, Indian Mallow (a reference to its family and country of origin), Buttonweed (a reference to the shape of the fruit), Pie-marker (likely another reference to the fruit shape), and China Jute (a reference to its use as a fiber). Abutilon theophrasti is a weed in North America, found in every state except Alaska and Hawaii, as well as in the southern tier of Canadian provinces.
