spent all morning yesterday trying to figure this one out. I still have many questions! Glad I remembered that I had seen that scene before.

We are pleased to release our newest title - Place And by Suzanna Zak.
Me and Suz worked long and hard on this one, a truly collaborative effort that I’m very pleased with. Check it out!
true words
I’m incredibly excited to announce my newest publication, Place And, published by Fourteen-Nineteen. This book contains photographs created over the last few years while moving through West Virginia. It feels so satisfying to have this collection of imagery together in this form. The 4 color risograph printing process completely transforms the original photographs into otherness. Thank you Lewis & Alex, Hato Press, and everyone who I’ve seen WV with.

As many of you know a large fire consumed much of Open Space last night. It burned from 6:30 pm till beyond 9 o clock, destroying many of the auto shops in the building, as well as several practice spaces, studios, print shops and of course, the homes of many who lived above the building. No one was badly hurt. This morning, when we returned to the gallery at 10 am, we found mine and Ledelle’s work humid and pungent, but not unsalvageable. I couldn’t help but feel how strange it was to see our work installed dark cave, smelling like ash. Soon after, the tennants were told they had till 5 pm to leave Open Space. Maybe those residents know more at this point, but it was my understanding that the integrity of the building is severely compromised.We’ve spent all day packing up the belongings of those who’ve lived there; It’s exhausting and there’s a lot of loss…but also a lot of incredible teamwork, outreach, and care.http://www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/arts/artsmash/bal-artwork-saved-in-open-space-fire-20130502,0,5251574.story
Anyway. This opening will not be happening tomorrow night. I truly believe that something positive will emerge from all of this, and as the work is mostly unscathed there may be another configuration of the work at a future date. At this point though, there’s no resolution, just strange photos of my drawings in a flooded room and an entire roof— once the location of a blooming garden—blackened, caved-in, and punctured by twisted i-beams. Thanks for all the support you’ve given to me and Ledelle and Max, as well as everyone who lives there and has inevitably lost something in the fire.Until then,Miranda
