your process sounds amazing, and that piece you attached is beautiful.

there's a resonance with the beautiful layered art that elisa showed me when we met. elisa, i know you mentioned the way the poems somehow keep reminding you of back alleys and how there's a particular memory of yours that's shaping the images - i'm sure you could describe it better...more on my process below

blog: these new images are so powerful...is there a way we can re-invigorate the blog? i can send in the re-edit of "in black and white" or another poem...recently cecily told me she found it instantly inspiring, and it's also kind of a useful documentation of parts of our process, something that can exist before, during, after the exhibition...i can take on some of the work for that...and maybe it can become post-able by all of us...

title: chatting with cecily over the phone and elisa in person we talked about that title, liminal mined seems to work for everyone so far - yay! - can we confirm it for now? erik?

didactic / artist statement: i like the "bodies of work" subtitle as well. i believe the inspiration came to naomi from press release's m'aidez chapbook's didactic?

speaking of which, cecily suggested we should begin work on the core artistic statement...it seems like a good idea for us to each write something short about what we think this is (paragraph / list of thoughts / images) and combine them. i'm gonna start a new thread for that, and will include that image brainstorm from a previous thread

my process: i'm trying to take liminal mined: elegiac scrolls as my subsection - chapbooks in the form of cigarette packs with the individual smokes containing rolled up poems (thanks to inspiration and scotch with naomi and erik). 

i still need to figure out a way to put the (minimal) text on the packs...gonna spray paint them a single background colour - any ideas artists?
