1. I have archived much of my life through collected objects.
2. I have moved a smaller studio, making it necessary that I get rid of a lot of these objects.
3. I have done so by using them as the raw material for one enormous collage, created inside a 30-yard dumpster.
4. Oh, also, I have photographed around 500 of these objects and will display them here, accompanied by a brief history of each item.

WHITE'S CITY BAG PIECE

13.5 x 17.5 cm
There is a place in New Mexico called White's City. I visited it in 1998. Here is what happened: when this state was formed, this new version of Mexico, some of the white people got a little freaked out and made a city. Go ahead, Google it.

    That would be a compelling story but it seems that the "town" got its name from the founder, Charlie L. White. It got some press in 2008 when it was auctioned.
