Did I Mention We Moved?

If you had seen this closet before, you’d be surprised how orderly it looks now!

I’ve noticed that some people have actually been going back and checking to see if I have posted anything as of late. I’m sure you’ve seen for the past few weeks, the answer has been, No. However, I have good reason, and want to express my thanks to those who have been curious enough to look and see what has been going on. I’m striving to stay up to date on this blog, and maybe even find some sort of solid focus and direction, but I’m no stressing over that part. I’ll let everyone know when any major changes actually happen.

The reason for the lapse in posts, though, and the rather everyday image associated with this post, is that we have been in the midst of a move over the past month. It was a little tough and hard to figure out with the pandemic going on, but we did it, and in the safest way we think we could have. Anyone who has ever moved, though, knows that it doesn’t just happen over a few days. It is a long process, but it gets easier each day. I honestly don’t think it would have been this easy if it weren’t for the help of my wife, my parents, and my father-in-law and sister-in-law. They all helped in ways that I can’t express enough, and all my thanks to them!

Due to the move, though, I’ve had to streamline what I’m working on for a short period. Juggling home and work has been a little challenging, but totally worth it. I know that a lot of people have had to work from home and juggle similar things with families including children and other family members, so to say it has been challenging is very relative. However, throw a move into the mix and it gets close.

I hope to get back to shooting again in the next few days, and I’ll be posting more online.

As for what I’ve been working on, my main focus has been on work I’m sending to the European Cultural Centre’s exhibition, “Time, Space, Existence”, that will be held concurrently with the Architectural Biennale in Venice, Italy, this summer. The Biennale opening was moved from May to August, and will run through November, however, the work with the ECC will be up until February of 2021, so I’m looking forward to as much exposure as possible. It was an honor to be invited, and I’m even happier that I’m able to participate. I don’t know if I’ll be able to attend the opening, or even the event at all, but hopefully that works out. Either way, I have things that I need to get done for that by the 18th of this month, so it has been my main focus while not working on things around the house.

Once I’m done with the pressing work over the next ten days, I hope to do a little reworking of the website. Nothing major will be done, but I need to thoroughly update some information, and also move some files around, as well as edit some of them.

I’ll be sure to let everyone know how things are progressing once I get back to a little more consistent workflow, but until then I’m going to enjoy the chaotic fun of putting a house together with my wife, and dealing with pressing deadlines that are simultaneously stressing and fun.

Cheers to all, and stay safe!
