I always joke about my “basic french name” but don’t get it twisted hunni, I carry it with pride.

my heart aches as we continue to witness the massacres, killing, grief, destruction, and injustice against Palestinians. today marks 154 days. 1.5.4. where do we go from here?
Only a few days left to see Collective Visions: Celebrating 25 Years of Photography at the AGO 📷
“In a departure from traditional curatorial models, Collective Visions: Celebrating 25 Years of Photography is shaped by more than 80 artists, collectors, donors, curators, community leaders, and scholars, beginning with a selection by Curator Emeritus Maia-Mari Sutnik. Structured as an “exquisite corpse”—the collaborative game popularized by the Surrealists in the 1920s—each participant selects a photograph in response to the previous choice.”
Super fun to take part in this – thank you @hackettse & @talorbenchoreen ! My selection was a 19th century stereograph, The Village Belle, Jamaica, in response to Lotus L. Kang’s photogram (Her Own Devices (detail), 2020).
I was drawn to the material surface of her work – one of 35 unique photograms made using mesh firewood and onion sacs. The pattern, layers, and texture reminded me of the thatched roofing.
