sticks straws sleeves and lids, laying the groundwork: first day on site

seems like this is how it always begins, pictured are cases of sticks(courtesy of perfectstix.com), cases of lids(courtesy of solo plastics), and in the distance cases of sleeves(courtesy of java jacket).
Today I began installing Sticks straws sleeves and lids in the McMaster gallery at The university of South Carolina. With this installation I am very fortunate to not only have a beautiful gallery to work in but a generous amount of time to work and the comfort of sleeping in my own bed throughout the process. I spent today prepping the gallery and beginning three of the four major elements of the show.
