The Other Side of the Torch
The morning after the legitimate burn of the Man, at Green Man, my futuristic Statue of Liberty was a 10' cinder; my trailer, generator, scaffold and all of my tools were bent, melted and mangled wreckage. The arsonist(s) had dragged the generator to the trailer, removed the gas cap and dumped it up-side down on top. A spent, pocket-sized butane canister lay among the wreckage. I believe that, like the Man, the attack on Liberty was targeted and calculated I suspect the attacks were waged on two pivotal cultural symbols, perhaps by the same hand and that the acts represent a form of domestic terror designed to get attention and paired specifically to Burning Man...I welcome any corroboratory or contradictory evidence. It has seriously affected my ability to support or express myself through my artwork.
After much prompting, I created a Paypal account at timeless.sculptures@gmail.com. (So far, the wonderful people of BRC have already deposited almost $3900.00!!) I can also charge to a debit card. Of course one great way to help is to order a sculpture... I am sorely compromised in my ability to promote my business… Check out my website at www.TimelessSculptures.com
