D.A.R.E – Does Art Reside Everywhere?

A 15-ft illuminated syringe for Burning Man — turning addiction into confrontational public art.

D.A.R.E: Turning Grief Into Art - Does Art Reside Everywhere?

D.A.R.E. is a 15-ft illuminated syringe for Burning Man 2026, in memory of my brother Seth, lost to addiction. The name reclaims Drug Abuse Resistance Education — a police-led '80s program in 75% of US schools that told kids to "just say no." Studies show it had the opposite effect. It didn't save him. Does Art Reside Everywhere? is my answer. I'm raising $6,000 for materials, lighting, and transport. Tax-deductible through Fractured Atlas.
