Here in quarantine Bangkok I will work on some exhibition digital files. I will send the director of the FLASH PHOTOGRAPHIC FESTIVAL digital files, he will print and exhibit them. Will send him a selection of files from both Thai projects THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE UNDER THE FREEWAY and THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP. After the show will receive a $500 artist fee to help the families and the digital prints from the exhibition. My hope is that I can sell these prints to raise moire money to help the people in the pictures.
Will see how this goes, but this extra show this year (one in Fredericton now one in Winnipeg) could be a very positive thing. I am also working on my PowerPoint presentation here in Thailand. I will travel down to Winnipeg and do a talk sometime in late April. Then it is on to making Ambrotype photos for AMBROTOS KANATA all spring, summer and fall. In the late fall, the UNB Art Centre show opens in Fredericton.
So it will be this Thai Trip to make pics for THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP and THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE UNDER THE FREEWAY->Winnipeg Exhibition->Making Ambrotypes for AMBROTOS KANATA->Fredericton Exhibition.
Looking forward to retirement when I will have more time for photography, and photography related things.
