IMPERFECTIONATELY YOURS

How many of us have there been? How many have we loved, and lost, then learned to love again?

What I’m trying to say is — we aren’t who we used to be. It’s been so long since we picked each other off the vine.

Back when we were green, would we see each other in us now? Will the taste of us today still linger after 8,633 more tomorrows?

It won't be long before our flesh turns soft and faded, until the sweetness of the past ferments to wine.

Imagine us toasting all our past lovers, each one flawed and forgiven. Just you and me getting drunk until our bottles run completely dry.

IMPERFECTIONATELY YOURS is the ninth WAVE of SOULED.

For this WAVE, the artist ATB enacted THE ENDS in support of Old Friends, a thoroughbred retirement farm located in the heart of the Bluegrass.

THE ENDS is a philanthropic context in which half the value of the last WORK sold is donated to support a cause.

This iteration of THE ENDS totaled between $4.50 and $4,608 for WORKS 1 through 11. If WORK 12 was sold, however, Old Friends would have received $18,432 — the full value of the final WORK.

WORK 8 was the last to sell for $1,152 resulting in a $576 donation to Old Friends.

Proceeds provided hay, feed, paddock maintenance, and health services to legendary racers like 1997 Kentucky Derby Winner Silver Charm.

In the last few hours of the WAVE — on Saturday, 05/11/2024 — the artist ATB and luxury hotel, The Manchester, hosted a UNTIL THE END OF TIME, a SOULED art party on its rooftop terrace.
