Install photos from my work “Neighborly Duty” for @purplewindowgallery ‘s worldwide exhibition. This is work is a reaction to the observation of discarded gloves and masks found in my community. I was overwhelmed by how many people just litter their gloves and masks on the ground near the sidewalks in my neighborhood. These masks and gloves are supposed to be worn to help prevent the spread of COVID19. However, the act of discarding these items on the ground may actually assist in spreading the virus further. Part of the installation also includes bags for people to discard their gloves in a safer way when they get home or until they see a trash can. #chicagoartist #chicagophotographer #purplewindowgallery #gloves #masks #travelinggallery #galleryonthego #logansquare #cleanup #stoplittering flattenthecurve #covid19 (at Logan Square) https://www.instagram.com/p/CArULSuF7YI/?igshid=wfmyluqe53af

Made some room on my walls for a new piece from my friend Noah Hedrick. Just a reminder that if you got a stimulus check and you don’t need it. Now is the perfect time to support some local artists! #supportlocalartists #noahhedrick #kittensofindustry #sethmoreno #frames #purplewindowgallery #amysheltonphotography #localchicagoartists (at Logan Square, Chicago) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_x00j6FIps/?igshid=15sa3v76nmbv9

I helped a friend with a project yesterday whilst staying 6 feet away the entire time. I’ve been fighting off some depression by trying to focus on some creative projects + taking walks 6ft away with friends. I also made a new furry friend that wasn’t so courteous, but I have him a little pet anyways. I’m also excited to start sharing a project for @purplewindowgallery after installing this weekend!
