June 2009

At night, there was the feeling that we had come home, feeling no longer alone, waking in the night to find the other one there, and not gone away; all other things were unreal. We slept when we were tired and if we woke the other one woke too so one was not alone. Often a man wishes to be alone and a woman wishes to be alone too and if they love each other they are jealous of that in each other, but I can truly say we never felt that. We could feel alone when we were together, alone against the others. We were never lonely and never afraid when we were together.

Les Baux de Provence was photographed over two weeks during June 2009.  Les Baux is a medieval fortress in south central France, not far from Arles.  The pictures were made as a commission for my brother’s wedding.

Les Baux de Provence is a set of 36 silver gelatin prints toned with Lipton tea.  Each print is about 2 1/2 bt 4 inches, and they are all housed in handmade wooden boxes.

Discarded is a series of unique artist’s books, all constructed from recycled books. The books used for the project have all been found in trash bins or $1 piles. In reinventing or reconstructing the books, the original pages are cut out of the binding, and the boards and spines are then used again, though the pages replaced with my own photographs.

Love the chipping sparrow card.  Are you making lots of these? So many dimensions to it…’arrow’, ‘friendly’, arm and bird tail.  Like it much.

Many thanks for the lovely little fragments, defiant wabi-sabi out into…what?….well, we know what — our “mutilated” world, as Adam Zagajewski has rightly called it.
