I love things that appear to embody a permanent facade but are, upon closer inspection, completely ephemeral. I think that's one of my favorite things about installation art. The piece goes up overnight, stays for as long as it can, and is then stripped away as quickly as it came. The thing is, to anyone whom is unfamiliar with the space an installation embodies, the art is a permanent fixture to our world.
I need more of this perceptual permanence in our world. Where my unplanned, haphazard life can have a moment to reflect on what exists in and around my space.
