SUMMER UPDATES

July issue of RE/VISIONIST launched and we're all really proud of it, super strong pieces. It might be my favorite issue yet! We were linked by Racialicious (a favorite blog of ours) in April which I didn't pick up on until last month. As always, remember that we are looking for fresh new writing from feminist (with a lowercase "f") perspectives, and we'd love to hear from you.

For the Birds also announced our 5th Annual Big She-Bang celebration coming up quickly this August. We too are looking for submissions, and fast! So please get in touch. This year's theme is feminist communication.

In terms of other eggs that have hatched: I am the new Gallery Manager at Storefront and an intern for Le Tigre on their new film, Le Tigre: On Tour.

Friend Orlando Perez has provided the goods as usual, so here are some more photos of my work at the Pen15 show:







I don't have detail shots of my book yet, but will work on it. I might even have some exciting news, like another group show coming up this summer! We'll see. Hope you are all not sweltering in the NYC heat, and have roomies like mine that are stoked on pumping some AC.

GIRL GANG ZINE INTERVIEW WITH CARLA DUARTE

Brazilian punk feminist zinester, blogger, and all-around do-gooder Carla Duarte recently interviewed me about what's up with the International Girl Gang Underground zine. You can find the interview in English and Portuguese here.

LAST WEEK'S INTERESTINGS #90

My lovely friend Nydia (super cool) has faithfully pointed me in the direction of her friends' blogs before. Nydia & said cool friends came out to the Pen 15 Press & Friends Open Studio last Friday night, which was a lovely surprise! One of those friends is Jelsen of Last Week's Interestings. To my excitement, Jelsen featured some images of my work & the Pen 15 show on Last Week's Interestings today:

This is a detail of my book, Visitor: A Collection, a work in progress.

This is a view from the wall I'm on, Andrew Bernero's work is in the foreground. Andrew, among nearly all the other artists in the show, was one of my co-conspirators in undergrad at SUNY Purchase. It was an honor to show with so many talented friends.

Thanks Jelsen! Thanks Pen 15! Thanks to all my friends who came out to the show!
