These came from piece #88 at Nice Slice, #59 at the Providence Public Safety Complex, and #62 Janet Zweig.  These all contained great narratives and hilarious difference

Nice Slice: It is too funny that your letter seemed to not care in the slightest about the object.  Pretty much what I expected as an overall response.  Do what you will with the piece; one guy one mug?  I remember being too tired to think of animal noises when I was eccentrically drawing all day and on that cup so a couple of the animals are saying things like “Meep” and “F#@k”.  I’m trying to think how the piece could function for you guys… a door stop?  Tip cup?  Venting frustration?

Frieda: The progression and random means by which the cup came to you is SO GREAT.  The bill you wrote on was perfect.  The perfect thing to write on… the parchment surrounding what connected you to my piece.  I actually changed your address at LCD collection systems in order to force you to go to the Prov. Municipal court thus interact with my piece (joking).  I hope you love Spain, I’ve been there twice myself – great place

Janet: Interesting E-mail and letter (articles ~ which I’m still working on).  You were the only person to comment on the imagery.  You also brought up the idea that the work can be perceived as retrospective as well as relating to the ‘here and now’ (of which most people focused on the present).
