When Juan came in to install my new Verizon Fios, he caught sight of a photograph I have of a heavy naked man at the top of a seesaw laughing at the skeleton below. The piece, by Art Toulinov, fascinated him, and it sparked a great conversation about the realities of the human condition, among them nudity and death. I love it that my art by Art brought us immediately into a deep conversation, my favorite thing with strangers!
