A protest of giant proportions, chicken style in the capital!
"At 8:45 Wednesday morning, Taran Singh Brar pulled up to the White House Ellipse in a U-Haul. Inside: the puddled plastic skin of a 30-foot inflatable chicken, soon to begin a daylong vigil outside the home of the President.In many ways, it was a perfect time to inflate a giant bouffant-sporting chicken in front of the White House. Originally conceived as a commentary on Trump “hiding his nest eggs” in the form of undisclosed tax returns, the balloon had evolved into an indictment of the President’s “chicken hawk foreign policy”—especially timely because the President had been making incendiary remarks about North Korea.
Soon the rooster was flooded with selfie-shooting fans and local media. After seeing the chicken on TV, one man raced in from Baltimore to witness the big bird.“I don’t know, he just loved it,” said Brar. “His girlfriend was there too, laughing along.”The rise of the avian monolith, and its subsequent burst of internet fame, might have felt impromptu to passersby. But really there was nothing spontaneous about the arrival of the great bird, who Brar affectionately calls “Chicken Don.”Brar had spent months negotiating permits with authorities and studying the exact trajectory of live feed cameras trained on the White House. “I triangulated,” Brar said. “There’s a reason it was there rather than to the left a little bit, it would have been blocked.”"

I have always been an artist. My understanding is that most people, if not everyone, produces artistic content fluidly throughout their days.
Whether or not that art is documented, complimented, seen, produced on purpose, posed for, manipulated, cheated stolen or just experienced; most things around you including you are art.
Entrepreneurship is an art form and I will now have voice where it is preferred. I have decided to spend my time working on art and for love not with less focus on working for money.
