When we were on vacation, I pointed out a painting or a poster that I liked. It was all these iconic characters like Popeye and Mr. Peanut. Of course I liked the Mr. Peanut one--that was my Halloween costume. My sister replied: "I knew you'd like it, it'll look good in the M.O.S.A." I'd almost forgotten all about the M.O.S.A. And I live in it.
I have a bunch of random stuff hanging on the walls of my apartment. Lots of old magazine liquor ads, watercolors I bought on the street in Argentina, and some framed posters from Andy Warhol's collection. When my dad helped me hang a poster of Matisse's Icarus on my bedroom wall he said: "well, this goes great in your museum of shit art." I told an ex-boyfriend about that and he coined my Museum of Shit Art a/k/a my apartment, the M.O.S.A. You gotta love family, they tell you how it is and you still ignore them. For the record, I love that Icarus cut out.
