I wanted to talk a bit about artists who hurt or endanger themselves. This sort of thing is potentially a bit disturbing so it is behind a cut.

did you ever read the body artist?

i did - not long after you gave it to me. i like that book a lot. i actually recommended it to my classmate kelly because i felt like she made work in a similar way, in terms of combining fragments of objects and events in her life into these sort of composite pieces.

i gave it to you? wow, i truly have zero long-term memory.

lets curate something together! maybe just on the internet. I want to make these curated "magazines" like catalogs without a show...so that i can include everything i want and not have to pay any money for shipping. um...lets discuss.

for real? i would love to! yes let's discuss. you know a lot more about curating than i do so i'd have to follow your lead a good deal.

i'll email you shortly...
