During class Joe talks a lot about time based art. That go me thinking about the Buddhist monks. They spend hours on a intricate piece of sand art and then brush it away. It only last for a short while of time when completed. There are sometimes pictures taken of the art, which elongates its life span, but the actual work doesn't exists. This medium is a slow process but is quickly gone.
