the first one from far

oh my you are amazing!
the packages are coming in, this is the honourable 1st one.



its exciting and very interesting to hear to all of your reactions, what you go through as you choose the perfect pairs to send to me...here are some of them.

i feel just like that piece right now-- skinny, angles, wobbly but holding together -- only much shorter! i found myself picking through my laundry tentatively --thinking, good lord, i can't send her the worst ones. and also how do they get so stretchy - or is that actually my shape. at made me think….

i think I'm more on the side of "I'm not sure about this one". i'm not sure what my femininity has to do with my dirty underwear neither do i feel to share or expose such an intimate piece of clothing.

hey you wild woman! this idea is fantastic. uncomfortable, crazy, fantastic. I've saved some panties for you and am going to send them next week. I had a very intimate reflection in doing this and I appreciate that project forced me to "go there.

the process is intense and wonderous, each avenue of investigation leads to more questions. some of the questions are broad & deal with issues of being a woman today, other questions are more about differences, coming of ages, rights of passage and then others are about me and how i relate to my body, my underwear....

the conversations i am having are part of the celebration, this is the art piece right here. asking myself, you and eachother questions about an everyday piece of our lives and taking some time to look at it a fresh.

and then of course there is just the aesthetics of underwear...a work of art in its own right.
