Are we humans?
Or are we amazing? Commissioned by former Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito in the 1960s and 70s, these arresting structures were erected to commemorate sites where WWII battles took place. But, as only humans can do, we all but forgot about them and now they stand empty and without the significance they once had decades ago. Well, I won't stand for it. Consider these babies on my bucket list. I just need to find a map with Yugoslavia still on it.

Probably you already know about the art of Elliott Puckette (wife of fellow artist/member of beer royalty, Hugo Guinness). Probably you already know she's from Lexington, Kentucky. And that she uses razor blades to carve these lyrical compositions out of colored grounds, or painstakingly paints them in ink. If you didn't know all that, consider yourself informed. Now move on to "appreciating."
