My piece, "Site of Origin", is made of thousands of small unfired clay impressions of my navel.
A colleague of my father's, Steve Arikian, and his family attended the opening, and a few days later I got this note from my dad,
"I was just talking to Steve who is visiting one of our divisions in Germany. He told me how fascinated he was by your installation which he and his family saw at the opening. He then told me that earlier today he put his hand in his coat pocket and found himself holding a clay impression of your belly button! He suspects that one of his kids put it there without his knowledge when they were at the show....surreptitious distribution of belly-button impressions thoughout the world."
