- Describe your experience at the residency.
- Wonderful as usual. I could barely get myself out of the Jet for the first 3 days as I was enjoying the space, the record collection, and my creative process. I always feel inspired at the Sou'wester, and throughout the week I found myself starting with concrete ideas or phrases and then feeling free to get a little weird with the images and text that came out of those. I tear images out of old magazines, gluestick them back together in a new way, and add short poems or phrases on my typewriter. Sometimes it starts with the text, other times with a found image. I'm really excited about the results. Thank you!!!!
- Tell us about the work you made — title and description.
- Griefing Cards A series of image and text notecards inspired by the things I wish people would have said when I was grieving versus the things popular greeting card companies traditionally give voice to.
- Did you leave a token behind, or are you planning to ship one?
- Yes
- If yes, what is the title and medium of the token?
- 5 packs of notecards to be shipped in the next 3 weeks. (My website is under construction with the new project, but I can email an example if you'd like)
