Sometimes, something’s gotta give
I’ve been mostly absent from Medium lately, because there aren’t enough hours in the day, but there *is* such a thing as too much screen time and eyestrain. I spent several of those absentee days camping, which was amazing. I’m hoping that sometime soon I will be able to get down to the business of developing the film from that trip, especially since I took a large format camera with me and I am keen to see how those images came out. (Usually, I wreck all my large format work.)
Before the trip, I worked like a madwoman to prepare for a cyanotype / poetry show which was installed at the end of March and has its official opening on April 9th. I even managed to make a book out of the work! Considering how my brain goes into automatic shutdown when I look at Blurb’s bookmaking software, I’m high 5ing myself for managing to bring that part of the show to completion. After the opening, my Mom will be getting a copy as a belated bday present (ssshhhh, don’t tell her).
Otherwise, I have thrown myself with fanatical devotion into a project for National Poetry Month that you can read about here
