#1: "Drowning in Clarity"

Size: TBA

Materials: Plastic wrap, toothpicks, tape, cardboard, acrylic paint

Source: "The world is blue at its edges and in its depths. This blue is the light that got lost. Light at the blue end of the spectrum does not travel the whole distance from the sun to us. It disperses among the molecules of the air, it scatters in water. Water is colorless, shallow water appears to be the color of whatever lies underneath it, but deep water is full of this scattered light, the purer the water the deeper the blue." (A Field Guide to Getting Lost, Rebecca Solnit, pg. 29)

#2: "Mobilizing Peace"

Size: TBA

Materials: Drawing paper, Japanese sumi ink, acrylic paint chips

Source: "The most beautiful thing in the abandoned hospital was the peeling paint. The place had been painted again and again in pastels, and in the years of its abandonment these layers flaked into lozenges and curled scrolls, a different color on each side. The flakes clung to the walls like papery bark and piled up like fallen leaves. I remember walking down one long corridor illuminated only by light from distant doorways. There the paint dangled from ceiling and walls in huge wafers, and my passing stirred the air enough that some came drifting down in my wake." (A Field Guide to Getting Lost, Rebecca Solnit, pg. 87)
