There’s a new conversation up for Nymphoto this week. I conducted it with Polixeni Papapetrou (that name is amazing!) about her current series, “Games of Consequence.” Read more about her series here.

Just a website update and Nymphoto

If you head over to the main website, you should see I updated the website and included (or edited) images in Foreigners in Paradise, Asleep at Sea, and Discarded Delights. Also, I finally added a mailing list form in the Contact page, so if you wanna keep up with what I’m up to, fill the form out.

Recently I’ve been honored to be asked to join Nymphoto. I jumped on the opportunity since it was my chance to have a community that’ll motivate me as well as be part of something meaningful. It’s hard coming out of college, without a job, and wondering, “so I am suppose to be doing something….” I really could not understand how artists motivated themselves to keep production flowing. After meeting the members and seeing how much I can learn and contribute to the collective and to myself, I regained my confidence to keep working. I’m seriously in great company (Nina, Rona, Candace, Maria, Margot, Talia, and Melanie). Sometimes you need that kick in the rear.

Anyways, I’m the Featured Artist this time around on Nymphoto’s main website. Check the blog for weekly conversations with fellow female photographers. I think it’s a great resource to have!

to korea and a new title (maybe)

August 12th, 2008

I’m going to have one image showing in NYC in a group show and then it flies across the sea to its sister gallery in Korea. Pretty amazing but the shipping costs was something I glossed over during my last-minute application to the show. It’s a little gut-wrenching with only a measly paycheck.

More details next week, I assume~

In other news.. I came up with a new title for my family series. Foreigners in Paradise. Be on the look out for a major website update mid-next week.
