The artist, Kenny Cole, writes:
Kristi chose to adopt this artwork because, in her own words, "I am a poet who uses a lot of found language in my poems. I also collect found scraps of paper, old government documents, and film reels. I like how Kenny used the found prison form to comment on the weapons and the language of the weapons. I like the idea of hanging this work in the middle of a wall that includes postcards, photos, found scraps and sketches, and a poster for the orphan film symposium which I helped with and is devoted to old, forgotten, and found films. I work as an archivist, so my typical day revolves around old congressional documents from the 70s and 80s. the language in the documents routinely makes me laugh or scares me or makes me laugh while scaring me. thank you for the chance at adopting this artwork."
The artist, Gwyneth Leech, writes:
This triptych was adopted by Caroline who lives in Tribeca, New York City. I am delighted that she has the room to hang all three canvasses in her home and that she lives locally. It was a pleasure to meet her and her son when they picked up the paintings and I look forward to seeing her growing collection of FAAN artworks at some point.

The artist, Kenny Cole, writes:
Mary Pinto, who adopted this drawing, is an artist who works for a law firm in NYC. Her office environment is pretty drab and she thought that this drawing, on its prison record form, would be an interesting addition; particularly in the context of the clientele that passes through the offices. She says: "At this point, this is a personal project of mine, to place interesting and challenging art in the office and see what happens."
