August 4 – Treatment locked...1st meeting with a producer 8/10
– Ozu’s pillow shots and the importance of nothing happening

– Stay long enough that the symbol becomes a person.
– Maybe editing is another form of writing.
– Still trying to understand this.

In Conversation With
A few of the artists and ideas this project keeps returning to.

Current realization
The more work I make, the more I want people to encounter it the way I do: printed, unfinished, surrounded by books, music, and conversation.
Question
What happens when a portfolio becomes a place?
Current State
Building the first gathering. Selecting prints. Designing the invitation. Testing the layout of the backyard. Choosing the books that will be on the table.
