The work asks its owner to fill* at least three vacant indoor commercial spaces** in New York City.
Once the spaces are filled, proof of this*** would need to be shown to the artist. Proof received, the artist would issue the owner a signed certificate of authenticity for the work.****
*The artist recommends considerable, even extreme, emphasis be placed on the word “fill”.*****
**I.e. the entirety of an interior commercial space on the rental/sale market. Spaces can be contiguous, though it’s recommended at least one not be.
***This includes a requisite site visit in addition to correspondence and/or contracts that support the owner’s claim of integral involvement in the space filling.
****The certificate would state that the spaces need to remain filled, as witnessed during the site visit, for at least 5 years.******
*****Re filling (and potentially unfilling), the artist recommends keeping local and global ecology, i.e. “environmentally friendly,” i.e. “green,” in mind.*******
******If living beings present for the purposes of the site visit are an integral part of the “fill,” the work accommodates any common/quotidian comings and goings.*******
*******The artist recognizes these words could be interpreted liberally.
