Cancer Sticks

I am not sure if I would consider this Performance Art or Earth Art or even a Happening.  What I did was have my friend and his brother "plant" cigarettes into a plastic container where beautiful flowers once were.  Planting the smoking cigarettes demonstrated how instead of growing into a beautiful flower they die and get smaller and smaller until they are a bud.

I am definitely not a fan of cigarettes.  I hate them in every way.  I did this because I believe that cigarettes are becoming a bigger fad every day.  Younger and younger kids are starting to smoke them because they look "cool."  I think they smell bad, it looks gross, and they are horrible for you.
