With the overwhelming urge to start the New Year fresh and set resolutions to improve your well being, get ahead in life, workout more – or finally go through the mounds of clothes and junk that keep piling up in your closet, storage, basement or mezzanine – to start the New Year clean and organized just seems like the right thing to do for me personally. While ones persons junk is another's prize floats through my head while opening boxes I haven't touched in years, I find it difficult to let go of treasures past found that stir up memories of crazy adolescents or creative milestones I hold dear.

In my daily creative routine I recently stumbled upon Mac Premo's new work "The Dumpster Project". His claustrophobic solution to an overbearing mound was oddly a refreshing and honest take on what to do with those collected and somehow-sentimental objects that should be eventually discarded. Inspiration for the New Year or an excuse to hold on to things that you just can't let go of – you be the judge.
