Visiting the ever amazing @artshantyprojects.bsky.social this weekend reminded me of this piece I wrote for Weathered about the possibilities of frozen cities, which included Art Shanty Projects: withstanding.substack.com/p/the-possib...
A whimsical structure sits on the ice with cloudy skies behind. On the structure is written "A Poem for Entangled Living," and many words are written on colorful posts that blow in the wind. Two people in red jumpsuits stand in front of a "ice shanty" designed to look like a burning dumpster.
