what is with popular kids and never returning your fucking pens

Okay so when I was delivering pizzas I developed a system for this because it was a real hassle not getting my pen back on credit card orders.

Keep the cap.

That’s it. It’s that simple. I had this whole thing where I’d covertly pop the cap as I was pulling the pen from my pocket so when I offered it they pulled the pen out from the cap, but that isn’t necessary. The point is just to keep the cap somehow.

Why? Every time I kept the cap, after they were done using it, they would instinctively go to put the cap back on, and the realization that they didn’t have one would break them out of the routine of putting a pen away and remind them that it isn’t their pen. The guy standing there holding a pen cap gets the pen.

Worked every time.

Marilia Destot - the journey

Artist’s statement:

In my work in progress the journey, I travel back in time and to my Jewish ancestors’ country : Lithuania. Mixing family albums, present landscapes and portraits with excerpts from literature*, I revisit my family roots and history, and travel to an imaginary place, an introspective and biographic one. In this first Lithuanian chapter, I go back to the original land, along with my mother and my son. We immerse ourselves in the nature, looking for traces, places, faces we could relate to today. If we think a landscape history is intimately linked to the history of the people who inhabited and crossed them, what can those forests, fields and lakes tell about the past? Which memory do they convey? With needled landscapes, erased and dotted silhouettes, mixed and torn portraits, I explore the relationship between the visible and the non visible, the absence and the presence, and evoke the disappearance and remembrance of a lost community, either forced to flee away or exterminated. Looking for a way to re-appropriate, re-shape and transmit a lost memory, and celebrate the absent ones.

*With excerpts from Georges Perec, Récits d'Ellis Island: Histoires d'errance et d'espoir, (INA/Éditions du Sorbier, 1980), from Jonas Mekas, There is No Ithaca, Black Thistle Press, 1996, and from philosopher Gaston Bachelard.
