Voguing
It takes one a few days to feel Nosaran. One either watches the surfers or is the one surfing, as was described to us when we first started to shuffle our feet along the bottom of the ocean floor to pop-up ourselves as well as the stingrays. Both activities occupy time, and at the end […]
Repositories
Costa Rica is known for its holes, and in particular following the rainy season on the roads. I have a fondness for holes and a collection of mounds. These mounds range in material composition, but they tend to be made from organic matter. In composition they are created and range from additive to subtractive processes.
VOWEL HOUSE
In 1955, the letter A was used as the form for a structure by the architect Andrew Geller for the Reese House, a beach residence in Long Island, New York. The New York Times published the house on May 5, 1957. Following the publication of the house, the form went viral across the globe. Today, […]
BARBS DOLED
There are many things that run deep in still waters. In the Pacific, things run even deeper and one is advised when one is spending time in the surf to shuffle their feet as you move across the ocean floor. Adhering to this logic is a purposeful measure against being barbed by a stingray. Rays […]
VOGUE
Tropes can elicit ooohs, aaahs, oh no, not that again—a place where affect is held in suspension over the historical and its signifiers.

The Sky Above
Corporeality puts our feet on the ground and our head in the sky. The temporal, what we see at a particular moment is for that moment. Our consciousness and physical presence makes this possible.
REPOSE
A PHYSICAL FILE CONTAINING PHOTOGRAPHS AND PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE EXISTS. FAME, IS NOT A PART OF THE CRITERIA, IN FACT IT CAN REMOVE ONE FROM THE SYSTEM. INCLUSION IS BASED ON CONTRIBUTION, SOME WOULD CONSIDER IT CULTURAL CAPITAL. IT RANGES FROM A WOMAN WHO DROVE TO HER HOME TO GET A WIRE COAT HANGER WHEN KEYS […]
Fiction & Non-Fiction (People who live in glass house build another house in brick to sleep in.)
New York has been delivering of late. The service laden city has been providing narrative(s)—the best of which hover over fiction, but in fact are real. A well occupied truism, that is in fact, true. People can be classified in this manner as well. Practitioners or objects themselves that maintain a position along this precipice […]
DOLE
In most times, and conversations for that matter, if a bit of excavation is done, one can expose many historical strata of exercises in contrast. Geologic time is intentionally being invoked—as it has to do with flow and expectations, and a certain vigilance in the examination and questioning of not only of who we are, […]
