Cover of The Hammer's Summer Schedule, 2018
Facebook reminded me this morning that this was 3 years ago today when my photo of @taishapaggett & WXPT’s 2015 performance at the Bowtie Project for @clockshopla was on the cover of @hammer_museum summer schedule.
This was a really good moment for me. And even though the Hammer asked permission to use the image in general, it still surprised me to see it in print. I definitely let go of some happy tears that day.
The Hammer was a special space for me as a young art student going to Otis in 2001. I devoured those exhibits and my eyes feasted on the accessible exchange of ideas that can happen through art.
But truly, I want to thank @clockshopla and Julia Meltzer for such a beautiful and nourishing collaboration throughout the years. I love my Clockshop family dearly. I have been photographing their programming going on 7 years now!! It has been most satiating for me.
I’m thankful for these kinds of work relationships that bring me community and never let me forget why I picked up a camera and never let it go.
