Throughout the remainder of the artist's lifetime he
will photographically document, to the extent of his
capacity, the existence of everyone alive in order to
produce the most authentic and inclusive
representation of the human species that may be
assembled in that manner.

Editions of this work will be periodically issued in a
variety of topical modes: '100,000 people',
'1,000,000 people', '10,000,000 people', 'people
personally known by the artist', 'look alikes',
'over-laps', etc.

"Portraits" have been made from a number of
photographs originally printed in various
pornographic magazines in order to document
aspects of "everyone alive"; from those four were
selected for this piece to represent:
AT LEAST ONE PERSON WHO MIGHT FEEL
QUITE EMBARRASSED IF HIS, OR HER MOTHER
WERE EVER TO SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE
Art-like techniques have been used to screen the
identities of others pictured in the published
photographs because they are not intended to be
shown within this context; altogether eight
photographs join with this statement to constitute
the form of this piece:
