Mi casa es su casa. My house is your house. From July 14, 2010 through August 14, 2010 I will be documenting home items which are placed on the street within the following city blocks: Western Ave. eastward to Vermont Ave. and between Franklin Ave. south to Fountain Ave. in Los Angeles. This project is an investigation of how we treat our surroundings, the disposable nature of goods and the sociological and environmental implications of how we live within a community.

Salmon
"Salmon are amazing water creatures. Born in our rivers, they mature in the ocean and return to their birthplace to reproduce. During their time offshore, they may travel more than 2,000 miles across the ocean; some reach the coast of Siberia. As each returns toward it's home estuary, it somehow detects the "fingerprint" scent of the river that it must follow back to it's birthplace. Salmon noses can detect the identifying substances in concentrations as low as one part per 3,000,000,000,000,000,000!" - From Introduction to Water in California - David Carle
