In June I was a busy bee, producing public participatory writing events with Writing On It All, out on Governors Island in the New York harbor. We curated a season of writing workshops wherein artists and writers ask participants to write on the walls of out-of-use houses. Every facilitator has a different approach. We love covering the walls with all kinds of language!

This year we were lucky to work with the inimitable Paul Ramirez Jonas, whose piece, “A Public Trust,” is one of my all-time favorites. Check out the mini-doc. What’s your favorite lie/truth?

Thread and newsprint are my new favorite things to make a sun print with. Today I’m going to the river to collect things for future cyanotypes.
