Galerie Confluence sent a short video tour of my exhibit. It is exciting to see the different print sizes together—the giant mural of the lunar calendar, the two floors, and most importantly, viewers! Actual people looking at my pictures. Intently. For a long time.
I am sure artists with more exhibition experience are nonchalant about this, but I can’t help being pleased and kind of amazed.
It is amazing to think how this polished looking show started with me puzzling over the gallery floor plan and test strips all over the living room floor. I am so grateful that I had all this work for the show and the book to keep me busy during the worst parts of the pandemic. It has kept me sane.
I mailed the second half of the books today, and nearly all of the small prints. Still to send: a few of the larger prints, and some books and smaller prints to the people who haven’t sent me their addresses. It seemed I would never get to the end of this mailing task, but it is happening! Hooray for the post office. I only had to wait 40 minutes instead of the usual hour to get to a clerk. Partial view of the usual line below. This is before you even get into the lobby!
