CV
A long-term effort—the project of projects, really, for a certain type of portfolio site—where I itemize, curate, and display as elegantly as I can the running total of my art life expenditures and experiences.
Haha, don’t get me wrong. I’m so fortunate to experience both the solitude and community of art: in turns as a mode of inquiry, of making, and of sharing. But if what they say is true, that the end product of any and all capitalist production is waste, then what in the world is my art CV a picture of?
One counter-narrative: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
