The Weight of My Love
around the house:

The initial idea was to carry them at all times and that was shot down in the first 15 minutes when I found I wasn't prepared with the proper backpack or other carrying device (for around the home). The solution was to split them, I would carry 5 and have one hand free while always being in the same room with the other 5. I slept with all 10 in my bed everynight. I borrowed a roommates river bag to be able to keep my eyes on 4 of them while the other 6 were in the bathroom with me but not in the shower. I never wrote anything in my current sketchbook during the piece and barely got to look through them myself.
