My father’s lunch box. He had a small village ch My father’s lunch box. He had a small village cheese factory in the Azores. After immigrating to the US, he worked as a farmer, then in a sausage factory, where I remember him taking this box daily. Later he was a furniture upholsterer. He was always kind and could figure out how to fix anything. Happy Father’s Day. (post inspired by @victoria.may.art post today 🙏)

Thank you, @susanaulik for inviting me to curate a Thank you, @susanaulik for inviting me to curate a series of online-only shows for @thefourthwallgallery . The series is called From the Studio and each show pairs two artists in visual dialogue. One of my favorite things in the world is having a heart to heart conversation with another person. I hope these shows touch that in some way. . . The full series is archived on the gallery website, fourthwallart.com. More to come! @carrielederer @tealbennett @nancyyoudelman @victoria.may.art @manuelnoah @devonairess
