STUFF DIARY, 2002 – ongoing

Sketchbooks and various new and found items.

I started my Stuff Diary when I studied my M.A. in England, 2002-2003. It was a way to stay engaged with everyday life everyday. This came after a period of recovery from severe depression.

 

I photographed selected pages of each Diary in the settings and locals when in progress. The photos are part of the installation of the actual diaries as well.

 

The practice continues, with close to 20 volumes now.
