Good Morning Music is a nice collection of photographs taken between Fall 2012 to Winter 2013. The sublime in the every day, the unusual in the usual, little surprises, the natural and the artificial.  Wandering, looking, noticing. 

  56 pages of color photographs housed in a simple blue cover. Limited edition of 100. All books are numbered. 

  It also comes with a 5x7" monochrome print of one of the images that appears in the book. Printed on pearlescent, ivory cardstock. Tape it to your wall, frame it, or use it as a postcard.

I began creating baskets, bags, and sculptural vessels from raw cotton rope and colored sewing thread in Early 2010 in my Brooklyn apartment. After over a year and a half of working with the technique I began selling them on my webshop in October 2011. The pieces became popular very quickly, receiving much online coverage in early 2012. The coverage continued with many features of my work in magazines and online. Over the course of 2012 I sold my works in over 30 stores in the US and several other countries around the world. All the pieces are made by myself and a few skilled artists that I employ in my studio in Brooklyn. I use high-quality materials that are manufactured in the US, and my employees, all textile artists themselves, receive a living wage for their skills and time. Today it has come to my attention that Target has introduced some baskets for their “Threshold” brand, which utilize seemingly identical materials, methods, look, and feel as my baskets - even some of the stitching details are the same. You can see the similarities in the images below. Target will be selling these baskets for $6.99, a tiny fraction of the value of my own work. Please, help me share this image. A company like Target knocking off small, design-focused brands for the sake of ‘staying current’ and making a quick buck goes against everything that I, and everyone in my studio, stands for. Help us get our message to them!

Thanks!

A sneak peek at the new film produced with and about, photographer Debbie Carlos. I’ve admired her work for a long time and was excited to collaborate with her on this project. 

Her photos attempt to capture objects at their moments of greatest clarity: In certain light, at a certain time of day, in a certain place. The method is to wander and notice. Moments of quiet strageness, patterns of light and shadow, minute-by-minute surprises, changes that don’t happen, something askew, something exactly in place, natural and artificial phenomena, are all sources of inspiration, and the subjects of her work.
