April seems like eons ago.<br />
<br />
In the middle of a Toronto heatwave, I'm tempted to say summer's waning but hello: it feels the way kids pulling home-made gooey salt water taffy (le tire!) looks. For some personal reasons, I haven't updated this thing in some time, and some of you may not have heard a peep from me in a while. But rest assured, I'm getting my ducks in a row after a weird but pretty OK summer. <br />
<br />
Leaving in April for some alone time in Joshua Tree, California, spending 2 weeks at a residency, and returning to some iteration of spring in Toronto left me in a lurch as going back to a familiar place with a new understanding of one's self is wont to do.<br />
<br />
Over the past few months, I've taken some time off to parse through the work I made and the things I learned in the desert. Let's be clear: this is not the work I made, though these snaps do depict some of the things I started or finished at the residency. I also burned out trying to single-handedly create the first installment of a Toronto-based female-identified index FKA WomenWork BKA Labour of Love: A Feminist Archive. If you wanted to know, or maybe if you didn't: I've also been photographing weddings and working, and trying to figure out what a 'break' looks like and more importantly, what an 'art practice' ought to be. Defining my terms, if you will. My practice feels a bit like driving or cycling where you slow down to round a bend and then accelerate out of it. Poetic, I know.<br />
<br />
Just have to say bless the people who tell me day in and out that it is OK to not produce all the time, that sometimes we need to rest, that breaks are OK because obviously, I'm in this for the long haul. That said, this is more of a diary entry than a blog post of 'new work'.<br />
<br />
This a is a tough one for me: all the photos are.. eugh.. digital! Unedited! Eek. Though in my not so humble opinion, pretty enchanting and weird. Have a l00k and don't be too hard on yourself and for the love of dog if you're in Toronto go run thru someone's sprinkler after this-- edit-- dry off if you got stuck in that tropical rain shower.<br />
<br />
Here's a pile of rocks for you. <br />

So there's the abbreviated version of my first week in Joshua Tree. Alone in a very chill apartment, sorting through all the feels, and making more work than I had anticipated.

and in the spirit of feeling weird about posting a million 'digital' pictures, and
needing to just STOP until I post the next 100, here's another butt,
whose scale you'll never truly know :o </div>

(the outtakes)<br />
<br />
<br />
Hey, hi you.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Oh it's been such a busy summer, and finally things are winding down. But not really. Maybe I've just figured out a better pacing for myself. Anyway, I have to admit that I'm hoarding hundreds of photos from the world, and it's so hard not to share. Alas I'm in the throes of making a book, applying for a grant, scanning film, wrapping up freelance work, and living my life.<br />
<br />
Here's a photo of my friend and peer, artist and cool woman: Cotey Pope. It was taken after we did our shoot for my project/ book "Women Work: A Feminist Archive" (which is all in black and white, outtakes from that shoot are up there, too) but the colour on this day was just so glorious that I couldn't help but load a roll of colour. Cotey is one of a couple really sweet cool friends I've really connected with this summer. <br />
<br />
I'm meeting so many new artists in the city and it's wonderful. But it's a funny feeling that, as your friend circles expand and overlap more and more, the city seems smaller and smaller.<br />
<br />
On that note, back to editing. Maybe another update in a month. Just kidding. A week.<br />
<br />

Well, I'm back sooner than anticipated. If you've seen me in the past two weeks I've probably blabbered on about having shot a million rolls of film while at a friend's family "camp" on the West Arm of Lake Nipissing recently-- and I'm scanning the B&W on my flatbed and it's hot in my studio and I'm halfway through a dozen med. format rolls and I can't stop but I'm so conflicted and sifting through some heavy thoughts. I tried diligently to listen to the land while North, and I'm slowly deciphering what it was saying. Feeling a lot of gratitude for this Native Land and the stories it holds. I hope you all remember that, as settlers and the descendants of settlers, we have a responsibility to ensure this earth stays protected, to help ensure that the Harper government, oil and mining industries do not destroy entire communities and their resources with Pipelines, and that land treaties be honored. Listen to those communities under fire when they rise up and resist ongoing colonization, and listen to the land. <br />

Holy smokes, it's been a minute, huh? Life has been very busy, and I'm very much in the middle of a massive ongoing project entitled Feminist Archive: Women& Work. The past 5 months have been dedicated to a lot of researching, and a lot of work to enable a series of interviews and portraits with cis and trans female visual artists living/ working in Toronto.<br />
<br />
It's very very hard to keep the photos under wraps, but I will share *two* with you now that I love. Alicia Nauta and Jessica Valentin are two of so many incredibly talented and motivated artists I'm lucky enough to know and have photographed, and hopefully this project will allow me to forge connections and hear the voices of so many other Toronto artists whom I've yet to meet in life. <br />

Anyway, there's a tiny idea of the portraits I'm making. If you don't hear from me for a while, it's because I'm in the darkroom! Check back on the regular though, I'll surprise you with something fabulous a little later this month!!</div>

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of shooting with Matilde Pagnier. <a href="http://www.theshoptoronto.ca/shop-the-shop-1/nesting-bowls-clear" target="_blank">Ceramic maker</a> and co-worker and all-around cool woman. I seldom shoot on expired film anymore, but here we have it...<br />

Hello, just a quick update, some nice portraits for you! Did some work for musician and pal <a href="http://sashachapin.com/" target="_blank">Sasha Chapin</a>! Here he is, gaze averted and not giving many cares on this overcast day we decided was good for a shoot.<br />

Last batch, just as dee-lish as the last two.<br />

First, I just want to sneak in some of these wild vantage points we found in Malibu. Very chill, very sunny. I would often forget either one of my cameras or a bunch of film when we were headed somewhere like this, but Airin was patient and I made do.<br />

And now here we are, back to the place that has my heart, the town of Joshua Tree. I spent a mere three days there, but walking around just a few blocks of the town after the rain, in the smell of creosote, I found some kind of peace, one I hadn't known in many moons...</div>

This is a Woodrat nest! It's massive, maybe 5' in diameter. Woodrats collect the crazy spiny pieces of Cholla cacti that fly around- among lots of other debris (they're also known as packrats) and are totally immune to their quills. These nests are sometimes as old as 10, 000 years old or some crazy thing. When one family dies or vacates, another one takes over the empty nest. Cool.</div>

Last photo of the Cholla garden in the park. We crossed the boundary of high to low desert to get here for sunset. The light was totally surreal.</div>

Airin Mcguinty folks, wonder woman, master of snacks. I remembered today when we ran into one another (but not literally because she was driving and I was cycling) how many hilarious and weird things we found we had in common on this trip. What a time! What a time...</div>

To end this journey I'll show you this place which I covertly photographed with the waist-level focus of my Yashica T4 which focuses with a mind all its own. It's the top-most level of the Museum of Jurassic Technology. This place and Joshua Tree remain the most tranquil and magical places I've been this in a really long time. </div>

My sweetest Torontonians, you've obviously stopped looking outside to be here-- thank yourself. It's gnarly outside so here, live vicariously through some photos I took in California, ok? I had to take a trip to the coast because I was extremely depressed, etc. It helped, a lot! Here's to creative pursuits (and the privilege of being able to leave a devastatingly cold and annoying landscape) which sustain you through hard times.<br />

An incredible travel pals to say the least. We kept each other company, I took her photo (a lot), <span style="font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">shared stories,</span><span style="font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">shared beds, snacks, and just had a really nice time in California together and solo. She pretty much enabled the whole trip for me since she drives a car and I do not, so she also deserves a big huge thank you. Here's a </span><a href="https://instagram.com/newolds/" style="font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" target="_blank">link</a><span style="font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"> to her amazing vintage store's IG, Newold's (located in Hamilton, Ontario).

Next up is the town of Joshua Tree. It's beautiful in it's own way, though I may have depicted the gnarlier and more solemn parts of it. Dont' get the wrong idea though- it was uplifting and very calm and the few folks I met were very friendly. It was overcast and a little rainy, but this made the whole town smell incredibly, of creosote. Jean Pélégri says that landscapes are our metaphysical touchstone, and that each time we describe one we are rendering a self-portrait, so there's that.</div>

...that was a nice day in December, or maybe January, with pal and artist <a href="http://www.juliana-neufeld.com/" target="_blank">Juliana Neufeld</a>. Possibly my first venture to the Island in this much snow. </div>

Should you get a chance and feel like not hating the snow for a day, take a ferry ride to Toronto Islands and bask in the glory of winter light and icy behemoths and a quiet that stretches on and on.</div>

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">I have to say, things have been heavy. This time, for me and for so many others, for so many reasons, is a dark one. It feels strange to post photos here without addressing the intense and ugly political goings on in America (though I stand in solidarity with all of those who continue to rise up to resist police violence and racist structures of domination and who've been rallying ceaselessly to incite systemic justice). It feels wrong to stop thinking about the loss of my dear friend Zoe Cassidy. It feels nearly impossible to consider artistic endeavours I was so excited about just a few weeks ago. But here I am. Here's to hoping my art practice will get me through.</span></div>

Studio F. A studio and very special place where my good friend <a href="http://benivulka.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Yuula</a> spent a lot of her time and made a lot of her work on Toronto Island. I was lucky enough to spend a couple weeks out here, photographing and re-aquainting myself with the darkroom. </div>

This day I was particularly unnverved so I trudged over to Far Enough Farm on Center Island. It was cold and I had to pee and I was hungry and didn't want to be carrying around a 7lb camera, but it was worth it because once I was there I was talking to animals and making jokes to myself and reading their name plaques and species descriptions aloud in funny voices. I mean, I'm no proponent of keeping animals in captivity, but it seems these guys have a very good, very sweet life.<br />

Hey! Just a quick update and shameless promotion of <a href="http://littlebrothermagazine.com/" target="_blank">Little Brother Magazine</a> No.5</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Art director Charles Yao invited me to make an original photo portfolio for LB's Meta Issue, and hey check that out one of my photographs is on the cover, too. The series, 'Vitrée' is yet another visual exploration of the precariousness of physical and psychological boundaries, featuring various creative and talented Toronto women. Some of the images are below, but do yourself a favour and buy a copy at Type Books, Art Metropole, Likely General, or anywhere else on <a href="http://littlebrothermagazine.com/stockists" target="_blank">this list!</a> I've read it cover to cover and am overwhelmingly pleased to be a contributor. </div>

Hairpin editor Haley Mlotek writes about women in media, the death of print, mass psychogenic illness, and “being the weirdos, mister.” Also: Journey Prize-winner Naben Ruthnum on why director Charlie Kaufman can’t lose. Emma Healey on writing poetry in the age of Search Engine Optimization. A panicked, polyphonic story by Liz Windhorst Harmer about the TTC. Andrew F. Sullivan’s chilling fiction about a future world where every dream is called into the authorities. In the art department, Elissa Pearl Matthews pays homage to both Ed Ruscha and our city’s ordinary architecture in “Some Toronto Apartments,” with an illustration from Mark Lyall. And Sarah Bodri presents a beautiful new series of photos that capture the reflections of women, bounced off a plate of glass. Finally, editor Emily M. Keeler gives you a glimpse into the making of the magazine."</span></div>

This time I want to tell you about cool woman artist, friend and former studio-mate of almost two years, the talented and industrious human <b>Meichen Waxer. </b></div>

After moving to Toronto from Aurora, she lived in Parkdale for a long while with her beloved kitties. She's had various jobs in offices and galleries ( you can read about her work and her life <a href="http://bootsandpine.com/meichen-waxer/" target="_blank">here</a>) and for the most part, makes art for a living. But right now I'm going to tell you about our time together and how I see her.</div>

It took a while, but Waxer got to me. We met a couple years ago when she contacted me about renting out the same studio space as my friend and I had in mind, which we had actually just looked at together. It was small but it was in a great location. It would be my first studio. My guard was up and I felt a pang of competition, was wary- who is this person and why would I want to be in the same work space as them? It didn't take long to realize that no shit, it wouldn't hurt to share (she seemed nice enough) and so Meichen, Steph and I decided that sure, we would rent together. And so began our friendship, albeit awkwardly. If you've ever had roommates, or shared studio space, you're aware that the post-move-in adjustment period can be trying, and it was. My portion was half of a dimly-lit room (a dimly-lit room that I now spend a <i>lot </i>of time in) which I had to widdle into a creative and productive space for myself and what I initially saw as a challenge (ie. doing that alongside a relative stranger- someone who seemed more practiced and arts-educated and committed than myself) was actually helpful and motivating. In the beginning I was skeptical, maybe even jealous, but Meichen's enthousiasm about her work would actually make the process easier. I even realized that I was equally as dedicated to my work as she- who knew?<br />

All of a sudden I wasn't so scared about when our studio hours would overlap. Meichen proved to be as dedicated a friend as she was an artist; spending studio time together while working on our respective projects, shouting over whatever pop music we could agree on meant getting to know her as a silly pal, ambitious and with a kind heart. I was happy to bug her for anything from photography-related to love-life to yoga-pose advice cause yeah, she's a serious yoga pro.<br />
<br />
There's still a lot of her gold-leaf floating around, and when I came in the other morning, there was a squirrel skittering around with a big chunk of it stuck to it's face.<br />

Meichen's practice currently explores mysticism and middle eastern mythology through illustration and painting (though she studied photography at OCAD) and she recently finished a residency in a tiny little village in Italy this past summer. You can see documentation of her most recent solo show at Milkglass (Toronto) <a href="http://www.meichenwaxer.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and of course a quick google search will reveal various other sweet shots of her at work. As I mentioned, she recently migrated (cats in tow) to Vancouver to do an MFA at Emily Carr.</div>

<span style="font-size: xx-small; text-align: left;"><b>a personal note, some things to keep in mind:</b> this series involves an ever-evolving questionnaire which subjects answer but that is not and will not be posted online. I'm constantly re-evaluating the nature of the questions I ask about work, productivity, success, etc since the series as a whole is meant to redefine those concepts on "our" terms based on our experiences. But the term "our" and the notion of network is problematic, read: <i>woman </i>is not a monolithic category and we often have disparate life experiences that prevent us from acting as a unified woman front. I wonder, can a project like this fracture the illusory notion of sisterhood, or the more updated idea of a female community? Yep, the eventual goal of the series is to give a more comprehensive look at women and their relationships to work, but what you read <i>here</i> is a way for you to get to know <i>me </i>and glean a more nuanced understanding of female relationships</span><span style="text-align: left;">. A significant thing I think you should listen to, no matter your gender, is this! </span></div>

Hey, hey. It's been far more than a week since the last post, but the time is nigh. I just thought you might need some time to prepare, to wonder, to anticipate, etc...<br />
<br />
Though I have to be honest, I have to confess: I have post-poned this post for personal reasons. One of said reasons is because (ready?) making brief but sincere and truthful statements about people that will honour their awesome and not be overly glorifying or false which will also maybe come up on a search engine so that other people outside my personal network might be made aware of these cool women is, in truth, vaguely daunting. Some of these women I will have known for half my life, and still don't know at all; others I've worked with for less than three hundred and sixty five days and they feel like siblings. Either way, writing about other women is fun but challenging. Sometimes so much so that I'm not sure what I'm writing about someone is accurate, and sometimes because I feel like it's insufficient. Regardless, there will always be a "profile" because that's the point of the project, and even if it is a relatively small blurb, these faces still mean a lot to me. Maybe this way you'll learn a little bit about me, too. <span style="font-size: x-small;">Basically, the bottom line is that I can't promise portraits posted on the regular, because of that whole 'writing about other people' bit, but also because I work a lot! For myself, in the service industry, and as an artist. Such as life and hustling in the big city. </span><span style="font-size: x-small;">I hope you understand. I'm sure you understand. </span><br />
<br />
But that's all, that's the end of disclaimer. This post isn't entirely about me, it's really about this beautiful woman I met almost a decade ago,<br />
<br />
Kate Christine Miller.<br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Kate and I were introduced by friends of mine in Guelph (where she did her BFA) though she would describe herself as being from "<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 13.333333969116211px;">warm kitchens and smoky basements and over invested basketball coaches and houses that all look the same, but not in a new suburban way, the Niagara Region.

<span style="text-align: left;">She always seemed like a very successful human, you know, a real grown ass woman to me. She was someone who I admired from afar, hung out with occasionally, but didn't know all <i>that</i> well. Maybe I just always knew she was a fellow feminist because of the cool people, my then "older" high school friends, who introduced us. We've been moving in the same Toronto circles for some years now, and more and more, I see the cool things she gets up to. I feel like I learned a lot about Kate while I photographed her, and even more when she answered my questionnaire, actually.</span></div>

Well people, I've been busy photographing the amazing women in my life, and learning more about them and theirs, portrait by portrait. Though you don't see much talk-face happening, these images are mostly made mid-conversation: chats that range from hilariously casual to deeply personal and revolve around sentiments we don't often flesh out (frustration, anticipation, etc) because we're busy bantering. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

So here's Rebecca. We met on the island a few years ago and something clicked. We may not see each other often, but I have a deep like and respect for this one.</div>

Rebecca is from Streetsville, Mississauga but spent a good deal of time growing up (and now living + working) in Toronto. She's a graphic designer with a knack for type design. More and more lately, we see each other schlepping around our west-end neighborhood. To me, Cianfrini is a woman who knows what she needs, has a chill and perhaps vaguely cynical outlook, and looks fly in a leather jacket.</div>
