August 4, 2008

My days here at Elsewhere are quickly winding down, but I've had plenty to keep me busy.  This weekend I was able to help on some construction projects in the garden and this week I'll begin assisting in the massive project of documenting some of the Elsewhere clothing collection.  Tentatively known as the "Like a Glove" project, we're going through most of the collection, picking out the best articles of clothing, and photographing them on models.  I'll be making decisions on what clothing should be included, which can be challenging with such a large collection.  

Yesterday, I was able to do a little work of my own on my day off.  Using some of the materials I've found at Elsewhere, I continued doing some wrapping of objects. This time, though, I used some of the ribbon that abounds in this place (there's literally a whole room full of it...).  For me, it doesn't really give the same effect as the yarn, but I think any picture you take here is bound to be interesting, so I'll leave you with some shots of my work.
