McCready Hope
Hilton The message in the bottle historically represents a context for chance communication. Whether instructions to follow or desperate records of a sea-faring disaster, the hope was for them being found and read by strangers. Hilton inserts romantic and prophetic lines such as You Are My Salvation and Let Yourself Fall in Love into tiny glass bottles. Her hand-written messages can only be read when the cap is taken off, reminiscent of the surprise induced by cracking open a fortune cookie. Arranged like a lemonade stand, this work stems from a larger series of the artist’s actions of selling bottled messages for a dollar next to other street vendors in busy locations in New York City and Atlanta.
