Had a lovely time last week with a small group of Dommes on a sub-led tour of the Asawa and Lam shows at MoMA, followed by dinner. It’s been a while since my last visit to the museum so this was a treat — thanks @lucysweetkill.bsky.social & sub b!

An installation view of three Ruth Asawa sculptures hanging in front of a grey wall and one displayed on a low grey pedestal. The hanging sculptures are made from wire mesh and form elongated undulating abstract shapes that cast shadows on the wall. The small sculpture on the pedestal is also made from wire mesh and is shaped like a wide bowl.

An installation view of five Ruth Asawa sculptures in various sizes hanging in front of a white wall. The sculptures are made from wire mesh and form elongated pointed abstract shapes with flared edges.

TIME’S PASSING (2007)
Oil on Panel - 26” x 16”

As a native Californian, I really enjoy the change in seasons that I experience living in New England. There is even beauty to be found in the shadows of the leafless trees against the pale gray winter sky. 1/2

#art

The view through an open archway of a ruined stone structure. Beyond the winter sky is pale and desaturated with the sun barely visible in contrast. Thin stones make up what remains of the structure. A weathered copper sun sits above the keystone. The trees in the background are all skeletal and bare. The snow in the immediate foreground suggests the last dregs of winter when the season drags on forever.

cover art is a muscle-y dude in purplish super hero tights, silver helmet, gloves and boots, on a pogo stick. this super hero does absolutely nothing for society except to pogo over animals, cars and unicyclists in a big city.

Affirmation to speak aloud:

I call all of my power and energy back to me now

I revoke consent for any manipulation, siphoning, distortion, or attachment to my energy across all time, space, dimensions.

I choose awareness without entanglement. I remain anchored in my power, light, and sovereignty.
