Looking at the Dump from the Inside . . .

I’ve sifted through the trash for a month now and found inspiration at every turn. I’ve begun a mural on one of the walls of my Studio and am working on 5 drawings simultaneously. Images keep flowing through my head. Ideas are oozing out everywhere. The footage for my video is also beginning to form. I can’t wait to see what the next month holds for me . . .

Here are some images that capture my first month experience.

My work outfit.

These steel-toed and steel-shanked boots take me everywhere I need to go.

One of the places I need to go. I practically run to the collection center now in anticipation of finding something good.

Beauty can be found anywhere.

 

Another day over – another one still ahead. The images will keep coming even after this residency is over.
