thank you for the feature :) @maakemag among so many wonderful artists in issue 17 curated by @emaschillin such a beautiful publication 🤍

haystack is magic. the people. caring architecture. ombre seaweed. sexy rocks. beach walks and chilly dips. 3 thoughtful and super delicious meals a day. supportive talented makers sharing space. photo shoots with my fibers crew. being in community is the biggest hug and creative nutrition. *in hindsight i wish i took more photos but my phone didn’t seem relevant at the time. so many moments in nature. the beautiful things everyone made. are all lodged in my memory. thank you thank you! @haystack_school and all the people i neglected to photograph ❤️ #haystack #openstudioresidency #madeathaystack
