these rocks are the bane of my existence. the truth is, i have a love/hate relationship with them: i’ve been making them continuously for over 15 years. they take much more work than meets the eye. it is my personal belief that it was the direct cause of my “frozen shoulder.” i have made thousands and THOUSANDS of them. BUT, i love leaving them around the world for people to find. i think the power of a single word can sometimes be more meaningful than an entire sentence. and i’m continually learning new ways to make the process of making them more efficient, even after all of these years and all of these rocks. i liken it to the movie JIRO DREMAS OF SUSHI . . . i am continuing my quest to perfect the art of making a rock (although i will only make them for TWO stores).
this batch of 500 rocks is heading to the ISABELLA STEWART GARDNER MUSEUM.
