25¢ a day (2013)
“This project is the direct result of a day I never dreamt of. This past August 30th I got married. Two days later we had friends over for cake. For wedding favors we got a gumball machine and asked friends to fill the 1 inch capsules with whatever they wanted. So this was born of that. On January 1st of 2013 I embarked on this project of gumball installations. One a day with a corresponding dated photo. I hope to find a space that will host the gumball machine where all of these encapsulated moments will be available for 25¢ each. I put this out to you with all my love.” - Jonathan Lester, 2013
