the space in between exists as a resurrection of writing about life, art, education, social justice issues and culture—free from editorial oversight or word counts or hot takes.
I began writing online in 2002, on a website of this same name, and over the years my writing has appeared on Medium as the S.P.E.'s editor of exposure, in Hyperallergic, DARIA art magazine and First American Art Magazine.
This space is a consolidation of previous writing (and websites), as well as a commitment to myself for writing-to-come.
I've been thinking about values recently, and landed on one that is very clarifying, allowing most decisions I make to fall starkly on one side of it or the other: anti-capitalism. So in the spirit of that value, and in a cheery, nostalgic nod to the early days of personal writing on the internet, everything that I write here will be free and publicly available. I'm not trying to make a living, or my primary living, from this. Should you be moved to fiscally contribute to my efforts, I won't turn it down. Proceeds will likely be turned immediately into photobook purchases, a trip to see art somewhere I don't live, or a workshop that will teach me something that I don't know.
