I went from 7 footnotes to none, cut 3 paras, removed a poem, and made it choppy like a bad haircut. Enjoy the reading list. #NothingIsTooBanal #quickreads #photography #politics #contemporaryart #autotheory

Due to freezing temps and tiny apertures, The Resistance stayed inside making still life’s of books and flowers. Reading and re-reading my way through the next 4 years. #bellhooks #feministtheory #pinholephotography

I’ve been making silver gelatin pinhole prints & homemade cameras this year. I didn’t see that in my future, but I love the process & in a weird way it satisfies the urge to paint & it's a bit like documentary filmmaking. Recent prints, available at Stove Works 12/6/24 at their Red Dot exhibit.
A black and white photograph consisting of a still life arrangement of rain boots, a plant, and a utility extension cord, taken with a pinhole camera. The image is double exposed. A black and white soft-focus photograph of a plant and an indistinguishable white small animal with numerous feet in an adirondack chair. There is a pumpkin at the base of the chair and foliage and sky in the background.
