a wondrous adventure to a most otherWorldly place.

(each image clicks to a separate set of images for your viewing pleasure!)

last Sunday i had the opportunity to explore an amazing brandNew area (for me) - one that i had been warned was "too dangerous" and i had never been able to find, even when i was feeling brave and rebellious. i was accompanied, so don't worry! (even though it didn't feel a bit creepy) i was completely enchanted. my imagination was in overdrive and by the end of a few hours, my eyeballs were literally aching. i think i may be reaching the end of making images that are purely glamorized documentations. this place made me long for more movement, more habitation - fragmentary and sheer people, garments and cloth, tiny elephants - something. i wanted to make visual stories. somehow.

i'm pretty sure i want to live there, in the Bottoms, in Kansas City. oh no. i'm not kidding.

next step. going IN.
