Lines
In 2021, I was invited to contribute writing to an arts gathering in the Canadian Prairies. The theme I was interested in writing about had to do with maintenance, care, and attention. For reasons unrelated to the project, the gathering never took place. Instead, OR Gallery graciously offered to host the resulting work. The final project, Lines, is a digital publication (essay + photographs) that uses etymology as a starting point for thinking about the relationship between maintenance, care, and attention. You can read it on the OR Gallery website.
My thanks to Christina Battle, Jenn Jackson, Gloria Wong, Jordan Kelly, Cherie Kelly, and Ted Kerr for all their help with this project.
