Storme Webber, a Black Sugpiaq/Choctaw Two-Spirit Lesbian artist and poet, photographed by Diné artist Will Wilson for his ongoing Critical Indigenous Photographic Exchange project. | 2018

Wilson employs a wet-plate collodion photographic technique, based on the nineteenth-century method that involves exposing and then developing a plate that has been coated in light-sensitive chemicals. He explores identity, the photographic medium as both art and science, and community. Wilson collaborates with his sitters, who determine their pose, clothing, props, and how they are presented. As a gesture of reciprocity, Wilson gives the sitters the original photograph, while retaining the right to print and use scans for artistic purposes. Originally, CIPX was Wilson’s way to work toward a re-imagined vision of Native people in response to historic photographers such as Edward Curtis and his The North American Indian (1907-1930).

This is what I need! Little scripts of what to say when I’m in those feelings that I’m allowing myself to feel but can be too much for those around me until I’ve processed them.

i love reading sad books bc when your own grief is stopped up inside you like a clogged drain you can grieve for a character on a page and understand that you're also grieving for yourself a little bit

[petrichara]

‘There is a theory that watching unbearable stories about other people lost in grief and rage is good for you—may cleanse you of your darkness. Do you want to go down to the pits of yourself all alone? Not much. What if an actor could do it for you? Isn’t that why they are called actors? They act for you. You sacrifice them to action. And this sacrifice is a mode of deepest intimacy of you with your own life. Within it you watch [yourself] act out the present or possible organization of your nature. You can be aware of your own awareness of this nature as you never are at the moment of experience. The actor, by reiterating you, sacrifices a moment of his own life in order to give you a story of yours.’

-Anne Carson, ‘Grief Lessons: Four Plays By Euripides’

Stories are full of impossibilities to teach us to bear the unbearable.
