Thats going to take an extra bag of concrete its so deep. Before the snow and ice made goose bumps out of our roads, we found jim bachor doing a little traffic triage. His neighborhood in chicago is full of these urban craters. So many in fact that jim decided to start fixing them. Himself. I just want to get my work done and get out. Im not interesting in having people watch me. Especially the watchful gaze of the chicago police. Im always worry read bout the cops, you know . Im too old to be arrested, ive got twin boys. Its true his gestures of goodwill arent city council in this casely legal, but no ones really bothered him, because jim isnt just filling chicagos potholes hes turning them its fun to see it reowe ledge. Like this rendering of a rumpled cheeto bag made out of marble and glass. This is looking pretty. Just that little bit of unexpected joy which is a fun thing for me. His street mosaics have been appearing all around the city for years now. Dozens of them dotting the roads. Former potholes that are now frames for flowers, for popsicles and creamsicles and few that state the obvious, like this pothole that proudly screams, its not a pothole any more. This is probably my most popular piece. More people see than if it was in gallery. Thats a good point. A graphic artist, jims passion for mosaics started on a trip to pompeii, italy, where he realized if art was made of glass and marble to survive an survive traffic. In fact they hold up remarkably well. Much to the surprise and delight of passers by. Its great. It looks beautiful. I laugh every time i see it. Jim spends 810 hours crafting each piece. All in his basement studio. Carefully chipping away the the colored glass then setting each tiny piece in place. Some moments of terror, because it can all go to hell in a second. Its held together by nothing but cheese cloth. And placing it on top of wet concrete is a process thats not entirely forgiving. As it dries, jim peels the cheese cloth back. Its a painstakingly slow and detailed procedure. Especially when you consider the fact that jims doing it all on his knees in the m you ever feel a little vulnerable out here . Yes, yes, i do. He just tries not to inhale too much. Theres a hazard. But the most nerveracking part may be leaving his work behind to dry overnight. He nervously watched cars zoom around his cones with almost reckless disregard, but somehow, they survive, at least until theyre paved back over. It used to bum me out at first but its the price i pay for playing in the street, you know. Thats why he posts his works on instagram, at least there, theres a little social media permanence. He has thousands of followers who anxiously wait for him to most his newest installation. After all, there are plenty of potholes that could use an are artistic lift, too many to ever get to in a single lifetime. So the next time you curse one alignment or blowing a tire, try to look at them the way jim doest , nojust as bumps in the road, but an opportunity to do something truly inspiring.
