improvised black being on transparency
these improvised gestures are the result of a an experiment with fiber, ink, film, and no mindedness.
fiber- kami, the dreadlocks on my head.
ink- sumi, japanese black earth.
film- wet media dura-lar, cut to fit into a 35mm slide mount.
being and doing with these tools has resulted in calligraphic portraits that affirm my belief in the beauty of the uncertainty of improvisation. each slide serves as an analog plate in my digital design work for fabric, paper, and video.
