If you go to architorture school you will be asked to participate in a design process that invites the inventive use of a kit of parts. Later in life you realize the world is just a big ol’ box of parts. You root around, push and pull, maybe the greek goddess Epiphana kisses your brain, and assemblies are made. If you maintain a sense of humor, that kit of parts will often read in your head as a skit of parts and and when you’re sitting at a gallery in Philly and you see a plastic frog, a stir stick/straw, and 2 spinny tops you will tease out a skit from this kit that this frog is no ordinary frog but rather the legendary weight-lifting frog, capable of bench pressing tschotchke nearly double his weight and when you know you’ve seen this image in your head before and you google the internet computer for a matching graphic you will be pleased to stumble upon another extraordinary frog.
