Alquilar said it took her quite a bit of her own time and money to create and install the work, and that it sat idle at her Santa Cruz studio for two years until the city cleared the way for its installation.

There were plenty of people around during the installation who could and should have seen the missing and misplaced letters, she said.

"Even though I was on my hands and knees laying the installation out, I didn't see it," she said

She is an artist... She is not a politician... She obviously is no expert on spin control and forming a decent argument for herself like the chattering heads we watch on TV all day. Maybe that's why I spent so much time chattering away on this thread. She just seems like some apolitical woman who is getting caught up in a political firestorm, but doesn't have the experience to defend herself. Oddly, I think that the people denigrating her work will only make it more popular. In the art world no publicity is bad publicity. There are a lot of fakers and hacks in the art world that look at negative publicity as a goldmine. I don't think she is one of those.
