Best Laid Plans

EARMARK COLLECTION
Recent Addition: Best Laid Plans, 2020, risograph-printed, spiral-bound publication, 5 x 7 x 1 inches, text by the artist

Within a childhood story about my personal tendency for order, I consider the merits of planning, asking for what each of us may be preparing, and noting how familiar objects and mundane rituals provide their own enduring appeal. The narrative empathizes with the impulse for escapism while also examining what is lost by withdrawing into oneself. — Katie Garth
