I'll be the first to admit that I've become rather unraveled from being stuck at home for this long. Attempting to process scenarios of the future. The uncertainty. So I made some art.

This series of photographs was created to mirror a project I asked my students to work on titled 'The Library of Ordinary Objects'. So far, they have produced remarkable work with only being able to work in two spaces - inside their house, and outside their house. .
I put a little box together of 'bits' - similar in scale and that had some meaning. I would figure out how to photograph these 'bits' to be my library. Looking for a background, I found this magazine 'Better Homes' from 1971 in my basement. 201 Time-tested recipes with a free bottle of Prell shampoo. The photography of the food is great, but the copy writing had to have been written by a legend.

So, I did this project with little thought (not surprised) other than the bits and magazine. I'd open up the magazine at a random page take some of bits, lay them out and then take the picture. If I started to think into what I was doing the combo didn't feel right or work in a way that other ones did. I just placed bits on the page and then nudged them about - but that was it.
