“SPIDER NESTS” | Miami Design District
The last weekend of January caught me eager to explore a new format for the (accidental) series of Tape-Bombing pieces I’ve been working on. This time I went solo. Having been kicked out of this bitty construction site once before, I revisited it for my own insatiable desire’s sake.
You can’t blame a girl with a wild hunger for color if she can’t turn her back to the perfect canvas. In my mind, I fixed it.
Only 6 more days to go! Become an official supporter of “The Road Less Traveled” here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jojapiposa/the-road-less-travelled-an-artistic-adventure-in-t
Your support will help me get back home and be an important piece of the pie in the improvised production of this Art Film I have been working on.
Cheers!
We could not leave Kansas City without paying a short visit to the long-thick-mustached heaven for 2 wheelers, the Harley Davidson Headquarters.

What?! Kansas City is not in Kansas? Yes it is, and in Missouri too. How does that work? Well, a street divides the states while the city remains the same… But, does it really? (no, it doesn’t).
This is my ode to the gutsy State Line Road.
We bid our farewell to Texas and the cottage in Randy and Donna’s garden, by taking a stroll around downtown Dallas (ok, it was a drive. No walking took place).

Instagram recap from day 1.
We drove through a virtual wall of kamikaze mosquitoes, we ate without forks, we stepped down in style, we doodled on a leaf, and we saw the retro modern look that birds around here like.
