cultural MATTER: art.icons.industry.relics

An eclectic collection of short story, notes, and critical essay written with an eye on American culture and ecologies. Ghost towns, big city life, lost industry, frontier mythologies, barb wire borders, and religion fill roles as unlikely protagonists. Road trips across Interstate 70, 90 and Pacific Coast highway tell their stories about everyday human interaction along America's main arteries. It's a compilation tinged with picturesque elements. Views on performance art, imagination and kitsch fit into the mix. Part ten critiques the abject human body in art and society. Part eleven discusses the iconography of women: portrayals of liberty & justice in art.
