Engage with the tactile
found objects    found images
rigid postcards & pliable pages from periodicals
cancelled stamps & their fragility    friability    frangibility
scissors    tape    markers & pens    acrylic paint for children
dot of glue behind the downy feather
there are no synonyms
images & objects are not interchangeable

Engage the tactical
where the blue    where the green
if the steps are cut & turned    are they still steps
is that a thought or a hat in her hair    & does it matter
copyright & fair use    public domain

Press the things   all the things    firmly to the substrate
take a photo    take another
slip the bricolage    carefully    into an archival folder
offer the images to the alisio    the sirocco    the chinook
