For this fun and functional sculptural object I will design and construct (in the style of historical carnival signage) a hand painted sign reading "Disposable Income Wishing Well" that will arch over an elegant toilet with a seat made of clear lucite and floating coins. This wishing well will be constructed on a base with wheels making it easy to transport. Under the arch will be a smaller sign (interchangeable) that will describe what charity the proceeds of ones donation (wish) will go towards. I propose that the inaugural launch of this wishing well to take place on the streets of downtown Northampton (with permission granted for particular location) and all proceeds to benefit the Valley Art Share Collective Fund. I plan to exhibit it in a collaborative show at the APE gallery called "A Prize Every Time" slated for next September, but would like to share it with the public out on the streets before that - no later than July of 2012.

The first photo is of a toilet seat that I put a down payment on (total cost $200) at a local Northampton antique shop. 

The second photo is rough sketch describing the project.
