Tell me a story from someone else's life

(ongoing)

A collaborative project with known and unknown collaborators. The collection of 35mm slides I have found at yard sales and thrift stores over many years is the base for slide-show performances of imagined personal and historical narratives with accompanying sound scores. Many of these orphaned images are sets, carefully labeled and organized by their original owner-creators. I try to honor that care with the project. Some stories I write, and some are contributed.
