Leslie Grant, Gudrun Lock, Kathryn Savage, and Elisabeth Workman use photography, archival research, poetry, and prose to explore themes of ecology, transitory places, and states of mind/body. This public talk will focus on their works’ relationship to the complex global infrastructure of a mundane train and truck yard in Northeast Minneapolis and a living archive – The Shoreham Repository – housed in Hennepin County Library’s Special Collections.
An ancient mode of inquiry, the “florilegium” celebrates the in-between in time and place and form. Grant, Lock, Savage, and Workman will share samples of their projects and open the floor to a public dialogue and viewing of the archive itself.
