a book? a book!

My debut poetry collection, UNDERSHORE, was released in May 2023 from Lightscatter Press—order directly from the publisher here!

To accompany the book, I constructed a paper quilt of cyanotype-printed squares that draw on language from the poems. See examples of these prints here, or visit the app that documents the quilt here.
