Lemkuil’s girlfriend of 15 years’ standing does not live with him. There’s no room. There may not even be any walls–in the seeming clutter of vacuum-cleaner parts, ceramic eagles, old radios, diving masks, juke boxes, uniforms, lunch boxes, model planes, tubas, trophies and thermoses, the walls, if there, are only memories. Lemkuil is an unabashed and indiscriminate collector, tinkerer and sculptor, fitting theater intermission light to a juice pitcher to a film reel to a shotgun handle just for the sheer joy of it, and calling it a space rifle. Nor is there any apparent madness to his method. “Rich people have collectors collect stuff for them, artisans to make it, designers to plunk it down, ” he says. This is all mine–my designs, my set-up, my life. It comes down to playing with what you have and not worrying about convention. Not that Lemkuil, whose talents are Promethean if unfocused, would mind working a little more frequently.
