People
Kevin Smith
Filmmaker & Former fat man
Though tongue-in-cheek and grotesque at times, Smith has an admirable ability to forward his ideas, build the capacity of his community, and make people laugh.
Gordon Matta-Clark
Artist
During his short life, Matta-Clark re-conceptualize preconditioned roles, relationships, and space. A highly constructive idealist.
Plants
Geraniums
Symbol of Gentility, Ingenuity & Melancholy
The geraniums at my grandmother’s house in the Bronx moved with the sun. I have unwittingly, despite years in the environmental community, been unable to keep anything alive besides geraniums.
