Broken glass windows from decades of abandon, disuse and/or

no use, the modern world’s wasteland: Detroit, Cleveland, Pittsburg,

Me… yet each jagged tributary and fatal line eek chinks of light,

like fear’s silent way of compelling us to look

and walk the other away

(Photos by Camilo Godoy, Winter 2010)

Framing the PAD (October 2010, Jersey City)

The photo below with the four guys modeling COPPERWHEAT clothes on the cobblestones is in our neighborhood in Jersey City called the Powerhouse Arts District. We also did the pink tape installation on those train tracks a few months before this shoot as part of our interACTive PAD project.

Provisional Formations

We are concerned with a way of living that will take place through explorations and provisional formations which are themselves only exercised in a provisional way.

Glenn Ligon at the Whitney! I heart heart him

Glenn Ligon: AMERICA, the exhibition that The New Yorker called a “striking retrospective,” is now on view through June 5. Fearless in unearthing America’s discomfort with gayness, blackness and those outside the margins. For seeing better from the outside.

memory loss, a short letter to a friend

I purchased this piece a few years ago from a Chinese-Canadian artist who was born in Africa. This just made me think about the loss of memory and history (that you just talked about) and how, with what just happened in Japan, a lot of photos (remnants of memories snapped in a particular moment in time) like this would be washed out in one second by a tsunami or be buried by a massive earthquake. everything can be destroyed, everything, everything goes——-memory goes!
