Book Bombs is a collaboration with Michelle Wilson, featuring a series of prints on paper made from invasive plants harvested from empty urban lots, and a zine, installed in public spaces in Philadelphia in early 2010. More on the project at http://bookbombing.blogspot.com.

The Welcome House was conceived by Marianne Bernstein. A 10' x 10' cube housed day long artist residencies in Philadelphia's Love Park in October 2009. Mary Tasillo and Michelle Wilson transformed the cube into the Book Bombs Shelter. Passersby were invited to make handmade paper pieces about home, Love Park, and security using pulp sprayed through silkscreen stencils, and to add their wet paper art to an installation on the walls of the cube. The project was presented by First Person Arts, designed by Interface Studio Architects, and included nighttime video projection by Ricardo Rivera of klip collective and other artists. www.thewelcomehouse.net 

In January 2007, I delivered 200 rifle-shaped sugar cookies packaged with "Nutrition Information" to an anti-troop surge rally in Washington, DC and handed them out. The stories I collected from the people I spoke with became the material for a zine. This intervention served as a vehicle for conversation and exchange of stories amongst those at the rally
