I appreciate the comment! I’m fascinated by how the intent behind art is interpreted and reinterpreted through other people’s eyes, and how that reflects on the success or failure of the piece so I always enjoy hearing feedback. Best regards from California!
It’s been a struggle trying to reconcile those two feelings, and one of the ways I try to do so is by taking photos like this one, which (I hope) captures that beauty but also points at the more sinister aspects at the same time
On the other hand, there are things like this memorial (and the general fact of it being a Catholic Church) which indicate a conservative and potentially reactionary view which hates people like myself
On one hand it’s a gathering site for racialized minority groups that have historically been pushed out of other areas of the city through redlining and racial covenants, and it hosts parades and festivals and other celebrations of culture which I love
Just to clear the air I’m 100% not endorsing any kind of anti-abortion view.
This is a memorial outside of a church in my neighborhood that I pass by frequently and have very conflicted feelings about
Taking a break from magical realist posting to share a nice photo of a nice couple in the park

Preview of a new print I finished today! Still needs to be dried and flattened but I’m very happy with how it’s turning out

Can’t sleep so here’s a rare digital photo of my beautiful son
A square, black and white photo made with a Holga plastic film camera. Ghostly figures of ice skaters fill much of the frame; the result of making several exposures (six or so) on one frame of film.
