These photos are of folded newspapers I used to wrap my dishes when moving from Brooklyn to Santa Fe in 2010. The harsh light and shadow of the New Mexican sun struck me as something to photograph, and when I opened the folder on my desktop in the dark days of 2020 when I was isolating at home, I was inspired to print them and cut them to make abstract collages. Some page content remains, and they suggest architecture while referencing history. They are both pictorially and materially dimensional, as the folds and shadows of the images play against the folds and shadows of the paper.
