Traveling Installation: This project has spanned a time period of more than 30 years, and has included urban and rural sites across the United States and Europe. It was published in LIFE Magazine and in journals in France, Italy and Germany. Compensation for publication rights allowed the project to continue, ultimately leading to more than a dozen installations in vastly different locales.— Panorama Mese magazine, Milan
