La vie is like that published by Seaton Street Press, NYABF launch
I am incredibly excited to announce the publication of La vie is like that with independent publisher Seaton Street Press. La vie is like that takes its inspiration from the philosophical thought experiment 'The Ship of Theseus,' which reflects on the concept of the persistence of identity - if every part of an object is replaced over time is it the same object? La vie … explores the connection between language and identity. The work, in text and risograph images, touches upon themes of change, immigration, connection, dementia, loss, speech, love, and humor. The book is structured as an alphabet primer (A is for Aphasia... E is for Emerson... U is for Umzug) that blends languages - reflecting my father's combinations of French, Creole, and English, as well as my own study of German. The book will be available for purchase at the Seaton Street Press table (C19) at this year’s NYABF (April 25-28). I will be signing copies Sunday April 28th from 2-4pm.

Tree News Issue 4
This weekend, Sept 9 + 10, marks the release of issue 4 of Tree News produced by Erin Mallea and Paper Buck at the Pittsburgh Art Book Fair.

The issue also includes an interview with the Carnegie Museum of Natural History Curator of Botany, Mason Heberling. They’ll be tabling at the Carnegie Museum of Art and will have copies of The Dry Garden as well as a special edition postcard set of images from A Tree Grows in Queens.
