White vs Non-White, People Magazine / Obama Love Collage....

Michele offered to help me make a People Magazine demographic study (ala Skymall Liberation), and this is what she came up with. I'm not exactly sure what it means, but it's kind of creepy and bizarre so I think it might be art.


30" x 18"
Single issue of People Magazine on cardboard.

Lady Fi5e original, bidding starts at $100 HKD! (And yes, the bottom of the heart is made up entirely of Beyonce.)

"THROWIE" makes NYT's list of Buzzwords of 2008


"A sticky or magnetic battery-powered LED used in bunches as a form of graffiti."

I guess by "buzzwords of 2008" they mean words that were really popular 2 years ago. Still happy to have made the the list however.

(Thanks AMC for the link)
