Concept:
2 things absolutely obsess me, death and commercialism. This is the
culmination of the two from my head to the world. The idea of trademarking
death is an idea that should have been capitalized on before
now. "The official death of the year 2000." It is my feeling that
business is held back by hypocritical psuedo-religious morals. This
monument addresses my fears of an over rampant and unchecked society
where all space becomes available for the selling of product.
