deploy at Walmart

Mobile Sculpture, sketchbook page, 2000
At some point it occurred to me that you could “park” / install / display / deploy a mobile sculpture at Walmart or some other retail store parking lot fairly easily. You have a captive, if likely bemused / uninterested, audience and some super absurd awesomeness. Never did follow thru on this 100%. the mobile lander/ sculpture “Action” documented here comes close but we didn’t really leave it in one place and wait for a reaction… hopefully I will get the chance to make amends on this fairly soon.
Go for it, Tom! I think artists should take to the streets with our art or converge on Walmart and demand that people take us seriously! Of course if we do that probably people will decide we are weird.
Make sure you videotape whatever you do!
