Another Justseeds Member at AS220 in Providence…

February 3, 2010

From now until February 14th, I’m more than happy to be the Artist in Residence at Providence’s multifaceted AS220. I’ll be working exclusively in their letterpress print shop, taking a slight departure from my usual practice and focusing on getting some small prints out of my head and onto paper with the help of their Vandercook No.4 press. I hauled three bags, overladen with reams of new paper, through Amtrak trains and stations all day Monday with the generous help of Providence writer Walker Mettling, himself returning from a month-long residency at Pittsburgh’s Cyberpunk Apocalypse. Besides printing and more printing, I’ll be doing a presentation on Wednesday the 10th, at 6pm in the AS220 performance space. “I Brake for Historical Markers” will be a slideshow and discussion of progressive and alternative historical markers and plaques.
Bec Young will take over the residency for the second half of February when I return to Pittsburgh. Special thanks to Justseeds cohort Meredith Stern for making this happen for both of us! Look for some new work from Bec and I on this site soon…
