P0RTAL:
Who Has the Time?
LOCATION:
Children’s Area in the Bozeman Public Library
Hidden in a bookshelf, this portal leads to the realm of the Great Timekeeper, a giant clock that some say is perhaps even older than time itself. To get there, just look down at your watch or your phone, and say “Who Has the Time?!” In this world exist many small beings, both organic and mechanical in nature. Some make sure the Great Timekeeper will keep running smoothly for generations to come, and some have other hobbies they enjoy.
Wherever you find yourself, remember this: Time does, indeed, fly, when you're having fun. Time may be money, but what good is money anyway? And, remember, Time is on your side.
BT lives in Butte, Montana, with their partner, their three kids, a tiny, old dog named Carnegie, and six cats (yes, six), named Spork, Tupper, Zumi, Auri, Dandy, and Buttercup. BT is an illustrator, printmaker, graphic designer and sign painter, among other talents and avocations. They love to use vintage and reclaimed materials whenever they can. Not only does it keep these items from a landfill, and gives them a new life, but there is just a certain look and feel to materials that have had a previous life (or two), that just can't be replicated.
If BT could go through any portal, they’d hope to end up somewhere with a hot springs and plenty of art supplies. You can find BT on
their website and on
instagram.
