From the Ground Up


In the latest incarnation of an idea that I have been exploring for the last year finally may have come to fruition. About a month ago while researching for a particular photograph I wanted to make a list was generated. It has hung on my studio wall since, located in the space I foundly call the Island of Misfit Toys. It is a zone of inactivity, dead ends, possibilties, or false starts. About two days ago the list fell from the wall, glided down to the floor, and skidded into the stack of wire and glue sticks for the "It's Electric" installation. And there it was, the bit of text and an older installation randomnly placed together. Now considering I have become more compfortable with using text as part of my practice and context the list has lead me in the right direction, no pun intended. It has been moved up to the shoot wall and is slated to be shot this Saturday. If all goes well there should be a rough version of the "build" shot and a rough final image to show.
