Rachel Perry Welty "Lost in My Life"

Welty, a Museum school grad and resident of the Boston area, spoke at the Portsmouth Museum of Art (I walked from my studio!). She was wonderfully articulate and open about her meticulous process. Though it may appear she is an artist who uses photography, her work includes performance and video and drawing. Her work is painstakingly laborious, reordering and re-purposing what is often overlooked as she creates a homage to the daily process of consumption that occupies our lives. (Serg, must check out her Facebook video)

Francesca Woodman

One of the artists I have been studying is Francesca Woodman. This morning I made this image of contact sheets, of her! A friend/photographer/neighbor mentored her during the time she was at RISD, Doug Prince. I'm trading him for a photo!
