Flower Tower

 

This was the first outing I had camping with Tommy. He was commissioned to create the towering bouquet of flowers for the 12th Disorient Country Club held in the Catskill mountains in 2024. A fundraiser for the Disorient theme camp of Burning Man, a few hundred artists accent into the mountains and create a memorial day weekend camping experience centered around a bonfire created by Tommy. At the time this was my first time camping after my kidney donation so it mostly involved me sitting around talking shit while shoving a camera in his face. He kept his head down and showed me his work ethic, building a vast majority of the vase and flowers alone, allowing contributors to assist but rarely asking for help. We camped under the name 'The Moist Collective"
