Blossom's Restaurant - 1976
Future directions for www.ArkansasMomentos.com include re-photographic images of vintage work, and scans of negatives and slides from the 1960s, 70s, and 80s.
Moving to social messages, such as my work The Nexus of Northwest Arkansas, and in The Wheel, I reflect on the generational impacts of migration and relocation. Returning to analog methods such as tintype is similarly embedded in current work.
As I survey the surrounding soil and place where I live, complications in representation occupy my gaze, guided by study as a recent MFA Visual Arts graduate of Lesley Art + Design, the former Boston Arts Institute.
