I consider myself an artful blogger. What more can I really say?

    I love Marfa Prada.  It’s a completely faux store outside of Marfa, TX in the middle of nowhere.  It doesn’t open, you can’t go in and you can’t buy anything.

The artists and supporters of this project knew this too. Made of earth-friendly earth, this biodegradable adobe building will slowly melt back into the landscape once the looters have removed the merchandise. The slow fade to oblivion will provide countless hours of conversation for motorists driving through West Texas.
