Earlier this year, Lambert and a fellow artist went to the Boston Occupy camp and redid the protest signs so they'd be more fun to look at.

His thinking about class has led him to be concerned about who buys his artwork. "I'm starting to think even more about where these pieces will end up, instead of just building them because they're something that I want to see," Lambert muses.

"A piece I did a while ago, a neon sign that said 'Cash Rewards,' was bought by a hedge fund manager in Manhattan," he continues. "I delivered it to him thinking that all his rich friends are going to see it and think it's funny, and that's not really what I meant. So now I'm trying to make art with other people in mind."
