Home Depot 10:30AM (Consulate General of Greece New York), 2018/2022

Posted byzkempf July 5, 2022July 5, 2022
I was in a Home Depot parking lot one morning and observed a man place a freshly lit cigar into one of the windshield wipers of his SUV. He left the cigar there to burn while he entered the hardware store. For this work, I smoked a portion of a cigar on my way to the General Consulate of Greece New York, then took it inside to place in a windshield wiper I had mounted to the wall. This marker of time remained on the wall until I returned. At the end of the show I collected the cigar and finished it on the sidewalk outside of the consulate building.
