My friend Mark has been working on a small book where he only spends 5 minutes per page. I'm really happy to see his progress.

Today I visited the store–General Bead to see their current choice of clear cabochons. I may use them for the "Breath" sculpture.

The Expanded SFMOMA

Today my friends and I visited the new SFMOMA and found a couple of new artists that I'm wild about. I also love the Kapoor wall sculpture.

Shimpei Takeda
Japanese, born 1982

Trace #10, Iwase General Hospital
2012
Gelatin silver print

Photographs from Takeda's Trace series seem worlds away from destruction and disaster–perhaps depicting distant stars or galaxies dotting the night sky. In fact, they are among the most direct records of the nuclear fallout from the earthquake and tsunami of March 11, 2011. Takeda traveled around the hard-hit Fukushima region, where he had been born, collecting soil samples from sites that evoke the tension between life and death such as temples, military bases, and, in this case, a hospital. He then packaged the soil with sheets of unexposed photographic paper for a month. The developed papers reveal traces of radiation that poetically challenge the invisibility of nuclear disaster.
