Jim Bachor [1]

Anton Chekhov wrote, “Any idiot can face a crisis – it’s day to day living that wears you out.” Two year ago, after moving to a new neighborhood, there was a huge pothole I couldn’t avoid. It was shredding my tires and driving me crazy. I called the city relentlessly and eventually got it fixed. I loved reading about Jim Bachor [1], an artist in Chicago who decided to take matters into his own hands, literally, and started filling in the potholes with his original tile mosaics.
