Something New

Today I head down to Asheville to plot big and hard with my criminal cohort, my Magical girlfriend, studio soulmate, Jackie Maloney. Before I do though, wanted to share with you our latest project. Our alma mater invited us to be a part of a small exhibition, deliciously complicated by the fact that I was in South East Asia and Australia and Jackie was in Asheville, NC.

As part of Kerdieekrdaad for the first time in two years, I proudly present to you,

Spider and Kite

The piece is an open writing desk. There is a chair there, please sit down if you'd like.  


The writing desk is full of postcards, bones, thread, letters, archeological dominoes and feathers. 


It's overflowing, really. 


There is a stack of letters from a circus troupe in Asheville--


filled with constellations and dreams and drawings as delicate and complex as spider legs.  


There are letters from Thailand, Indonesia, Australia--sketches and confessions scribbled on maps from the last town, common epiphanies, justice-hunger, awe.


These letters wait for their recipients here at this writing desk. You can wait here too. We have stamps and empty pages. Add something, write to someone, leave a relic.


The exhibition runs until the 16th.
