I took 3 photos over to Tompkins Square Library today for the NYPL staff art show. I won't find out until Wednesday if they have been accepted, so keep your fingers crossed. Two are Coney Island Holgas (thanks, Carrie) and one is of a small section of crumbly wall inside the Augustinian Academy on Staten Island. They aren't digital -- and I haven't scanned them -- so you'll just have to imagine what they look like based on the short description I submitted with them:
"I like to listen for the past in cold, lonely places - I look for broken promises in layers of concrete & graffiti, abandoned buildings, cast-off mittens, rainy days, and Coney Island in winter.
I believe that our dreams are always heard, no matter how quietly we first whispered them. I believe that the buildings remember, and will hold our secrets safe until we return for them."
