May 7, 2010 - I participated in Single Fare, a show of artworks on used MetroCards. It actually riffed perfectly off a project I did in 2005, sharing my happy thoughts on the backs of MetroCards. So I sent them a card of one of my happy thoughts: The letter "Z" in line with a Triple Word Score on a Scrabble board. Check out pictures from the show at the site, linked above. It's up until May 12th at 224 Grand Street in Williamsburg.
