You saw the bird lantern last month at my EcoIlluminessence art show and performance. About 20 yrs ago, I used to do black and white darkroom photography, focusing on my handmade animal-shaped lanterns. I also experimented with image transfer & mono printing.

While updating my link-in-bio on X, I stumbled back into a poetic fragment I wrote in 2016, during a Twine workshop. It caught me off guard — still strangely resonant.

I designed a behaviorally-informed poster as part of the WorkAble intern sketch project with the Accessibility Directorate — supporting public awareness of service and guide dog access rights.

🌙 Shadow & Light Play at Day 2 of Eco-illumin-essence
What if you could animate a shadow...
not by touching it, but by shifting the light?

Sumi-e curtain setup is now complete—just added an artificial backlight in case the evening window light isn’t strong enough tomorrow at the Xchanges gallery.
