released but unbound series




these are only a few from my new series of photographs documenting the hair that remains on my studio floor from the haircut i received last week.
the braided piece titled "release" from my show contains two and a half years in its length, predating the death of my grandmother. her only daughter, my mother, cut the braid from my head within the space of my studio. this act was executed in an effort to both release the burden of trauma and loss i had been carrying with me for two and a half years, as well as release the link between the location of my studio with these associated memories.

this hair remains unbound, and tells a much shorter story through its vestiges. i will be photographing the hair daily until i move out of my studio, and this will be a short series, as i move out next week.
i am recording the remnants of time and fragility of placement.
this series is called "released but unbound"

dear studio...





i'll miss your beautiful light.

*blink*






what a whirlwind the last week has been. is that it now? the work is finished, the show has closed and been taken down and my manuscript has been submitted. i guess that means i'm finished with graduate school. these are a few of the installation shots from the show.

[Swi:t] Home

I feel a great affinity with this work and the eloquent write up at the Corcoran Gallery. According to the review, the work "speaks to the complex intermingling of daily routine and chance events, and the ways in which life intersects with art."

This work is breathtaking.

I know this is more a documentary photo of Anna Maria Horner's work in progress, but I think this is a beautifully composed narrative of a time line, resonating with that of a cross-section of a tree or sedimentary rock and I love it.

birthdays.


I get excited about other people's birthdays just as much as my own sometimes. I think because there's cake. The celebration is fun, as is the hunt for the perfect present, but there really is nothing like homemade birthday cake and the scent of freshly blown out candles.

I didn't take this picture, but i adore it.
