atlanta + amsterdam


The internet is a crazy place. A ridiculous, crazy place. But for every one ridiculous, crazy internet thing, there are at least a dozen spectacular, wonderful internet things. In an instant, we are connected in impossible, miraculous ways, find commonality in similarities and differences, in the ways our stories intersect through the sharing of the work we make and the photographs we take. Never has there been a better time for collaborations between artists, never in the history of the world. 

In the spirit of this, I give you atlanta + amsterdam. Over the next twelve weeks, I'll be collaborating with Andrea (from hula seventy) to bring you looks at two different cities through the lenses of two Polaroid SX-70 cameras. Every Thursday, we'll be here (and there) with different Polaroids, side by side-- bits from Atlanta, bits from Amsterdam.  A little world travel every Thursday, if you will, without having to move even one inch. 

Meet you back here in a week, folks. Until then, the streets of Atlanta and Amsterdam are waiting.

Modern Macrame: Wall Hangings with Emily Katz

Last night we went to the workshop Wall Hangings, by Emily Katz of Modern Macrame, based in Portland Oregon. She's currently on tour through Europe to teach her workshops, how cool is that? The workshop was hosted by The Hoxton Hotel in Amsterdam and it was such a fun evening! Growing up in the eighties I (Joyce) learned the technique at primary school, but totally forgot how to do it. So what's better than the opportunity to learn it again by Emily? 

Can't wait to start a bigger project soon! Thanks for the great workshop, Emily!
