Once I was really stressed after having a fight on the phone with someone and hung up and just picked up a potato from my counter and opened the front door and threw it into the night void (probably my neighbor’s yard) and it made me feel better. So I put out an open call with these instructions: FIND A SPROUTING POTATO // PLACE ALL OF YOUR PAIN INTO THE POTATO // FIND A VOID // THROW THE POTATO INTO THE VOID // SEND ME THE VIDEO OF THE ACTION. This video is a compilation of those submissions of collective catharsis and healing centered around the ritualistic gesture of throwing a potato into the void.

I’m still collecting submissions at kpeets@bellsouth.net
