Exhibition at Argyle Fine Art, Halifax, Nova Scotia: July 24-August 10
For the last few months, I have been working with fine art photographer Elizabeth Kenneday-Corathers on a series of images (since Elizabeth lives in California, we are passing the images back and forth via email). Please go to the Women of the Forest page of this blog for a sneak peek. Join us Friday, July 24 in Halifax for the opening.

Cabinet of Curiosities
This series was created for an exhibition of artists’ books in Halifax, and is presented as a booklet contained within a miniature cabinet. Click here to see all of the images. The exhibition will be held at the Corridor Gallery from July to August, 2009.
Two photographs from my Beyond Words series were selected for purchase by The Nova Scotia Art Bank. Here is the mission of the Art Bank, from their website:
Chaos Theory
The works chosen for purchase were Chaos Theory and Loose Ends.
Fortune Seeking, my new series, has been awarded a generous creation grant by Nova Scotia Culture Division. The series of images will be directed by randomly chosen fortune cookie fortunes from a collection that has been accumulating over the last 20 years. It is exciting to get started on this work, especially with the backing and blessing that this grant bestows, and images will be posted here as they are created.
For the Love of Letters at Argyle Fine Art, Halifax, Nova Scotia
Group exhibition ran February-March, 2009. After publicizing an open call for copies of love letters that people had sent, Argyle selected 17 and forwarded them to 17 different artists for their visual interpretation. I received a letter that was to have been sent by a young woman to a young male friend whose life was in chaos. Unfortunately, the young man was killed before the letter reached him.
