She was drawn in November of 2003. Her drawing is counting ten people.0:48It is very, very rare that we clean up any of the locations we are visiting or alter them in any way.0:55It has always been important to have our drawings be the only event that changes the space.1:00But there are rare exceptions.1:03In this corner, between the wall we wanted to draw Caroline Bugue and the adjoining fence1:08was some grossness.1:10Just food trash grossness, but rained on, sitting for too long, visually repugnant food1:15trash grossness.1:17We found a paper bag and through delicate means got that mess into it.1:21it. This rendered the paper bag unmovable, but it provided a visually dignified space for the1:26drawing. She was writing a children's book. It was to have been the story of Noah's Ark told from1:32the point of view of Noah's wife. In her Santa Monica neighborhood, Carolyn was a popular figure.1:37She hosted an annual backyard barbecue for the Santa Monica High School girls track team.1:42Carolyn was seated on flight 11 with her mother, Mary Alice Wallstrom.← Location 148Heart Two · Location 149Location 150 →
