Someone (RFKjr) wasn’t raised by a Latinx mami & it shows…. As a Latina daughter I never wanted to see this level of facial expression from my Mami and my mijita fears Latina mami eyes más que nada. (they’ve replaced the chancla thank doggess pero maybe eyes have more power than I thought)

On March 1st of this year I placed a pinhole camera along the Boston harbor front at a spot that is below the waterline at high tide. 6 weeks later I came back and took it home. Waterlogged twice a day for the last 44 days, I wasn't sure the paper negative inside would have any emulsion left on it.

Blue Iris I, 1976 by Joyce Lyon

Sometimes, when I’m writing an alt description of an #abstract image, I feel unmoored & unhinged. Unsettling for me as someone very comfortable with words. But I suppose it might be a sign that the bit of #AbstractArt has hit the mark: going beyond words into the realm of emotions ideas sensation

Oh. Oh dear. alt text: A timeline with birth at one end and death at the other. A small early part is labeled “gifted kid” then a biggish chunk “a burned out disappointment” then the last chunk of time is “old weirdo with a home studio” a red arrow pointing to it & Life of an Artist as title.

Cool interview about my latest work conducted with my "co-collaborator and husband, RTI International research analyst @chrisbennettedu.bsky.social." (never gets old) We talked about why this work matters, some of potential solutions, and what's next. 1/ www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty...

"Black-led nonprofits—organizations with majority Black leadership and serving predominately Black communities—are less likely to receive foundation funding than other nonprofits."

1st time participating, edited @rjrock.bsky.social foto for the #Postprocess #Challenge #EraShift into post-painterly abstraction era. And it was a challenge since what I usually start with is already more/less abstract but color is color. Processing details in Alt! #EastCoastKin #ECK

Tbh I made these images b4 I was aware of #ArtemisII at all. And overall they represent more generalized notions or ideas about space travel, the sky, light, color, atmosphere. #Stunday #Sunday #AbstractPhotography #AbstractArt #Abstract

There was healing last night for this kid who was 12 for Challenger & in the middle of writing my dissertation for Columbia. tbh I was terrified but my own kid was invested so there I was. To have them land so well, to be okay, - such profound relief. #ArtemisII

Let it be known that Katherine Johnson was the reason for the first astronauts in space. And now Vanessa Wyche, head of the Johnson Space Center and NASA's highest ranking civil servant, is the responsible for the longest manned space flight in history

Btw expansion draft & free agency, & the draft, my nerves are just a mess #wnba (the draft is the least stressful tbh) #Lynx I had to yell at fam members yesterday that I couldn’t take hearing rumors anymore. But now, today, there’s actual news and it breaks my heart. Love you T #AlwaysALynx

Haven’t done a work based on my painting & my photography in awhile. A little #landscape, perhaps? #AbstractArt #AbstractPhotography #AbstractPainting #MobilePhotography

I know it’s not the point but I really do want to know what the 14th c. weapon was & why it was in the meeting room at the Pentagon? Do they just have random weapons lying around from [checks notes] before the colonizers got to this bit of North America? www.thelettersfromleo.com/p/the-pentag...

Omg why have I never heard of Alice Rahon?!?!?! I’m crying so happy to at least learn of here now

What Sydette said. and I’m so tired from having been screaming into what was apparently a void?

Remembering and celebrating the great Ivan Dixon, trailblazing Emmy-nominated actor, filmmaker, and producer, on his 95th birthday, beloved for roles in SOMETHING OF VALUE, PORGY AND BESS, A RAISIN IN THE SUN, NOTHING BUT A MAN, A PATCH OF BLUE, CAR WASH, THE TWILIGHT ZONE, THE FUGITIVE, and more.

DC abstracts - a series. #AbstractPhotography #MobilePhotography #AbstractArt

Lots of art in a short amount of time, my brain is buzzing along, making connections. There were 3 pieces that I loved, and when I saw the 3rd I was gobsmacked. like if 3 artists got the same prompt & wow did they each do their thing with it. Here’s my thing of their 3 things. #Abstract #MobilePhoto

The windows of the Hirshhorn provide a great substrate for #AbstractPhotography & for the theme of #Openings today in #BlueskyArtShow #MobilePhotography #AbstractArt #Abstract

I was so beyond excited to see Chakaia Booker’s sculptural walls (my own goofy made up term) & photogravures that I knew I had to try bringing them even closer, to touch each other across space & time & whatever else. 3 remixes. #BlackSculptors #AbstractArt #AbstractPhotography #MobilePhotography

A must-read!

Y’all. For reals. I got to see THREE of Chakaia Booker’s monumental pieces today, plus her series of photogravures ‘Founding Warrior Quest (II 24C)’ Another amazing of the #BlackSculptors I covered in Feb! 3 in one week!! Here’s a sample

One of my fav things to do at art museums is to find visual or otherwise links among the art that I then recombine together with my phone (app is ImageFlux). This has Joan Mitchell, Toshiko Takaezu, & Taissir Abdelgadir (painting, sculpture, batik). #AbstractPhotography #MobilePhotography

On a recent trip to Iowa City, I visited Stanley Art Museum & I was so excited to see these two pieces, by #BlackSculptors I’ve recently learned more about- OLIVER LEE JACKSON & ELIZABETH CATLETT. (I might’ve cried at ‘Glory’ because it’s so sublimely gorgeous.) Both are/were Iowa MFA alums.

Caí wish colleges/universities could revoke degrees, like the reverse of giving someone an honorary degree. Because anyone who says ‘stomach micro biome’ is massive fail and then follows with ‘is plants’ just more fail. Does he also think 2+2 =4 83.409?
