JAN 14. AMERIKA HAUS

OMG.  I just re-read the last blog update and realized I promised a sneak peek yesterday!  Oopsies!!  I was so exhausted that I literally forgot that I had even blogged that day.  Well....better late then never.  So in celebration of a fabulous exhibition that is opening today at the Amerika Haus in Munich, I present you with:

Ashley was so beautiful and honest with us during our brief stay in Jackson Mississippi last June.  She welcomed us into her home and really opened our eyes to the struggle of coming out as a lesbian in the deep south.  ...stay tuned in the coming months for footage from her interview.

Not only did Ashley have great stories, she had great restaurant tips as well.   Amelia and I treated ourselves to one nice meal on our grand adventure and this was definitely the best bite of the trip.  This talky was filmed right down the street from her lovely home.  



If you happen to be in Germany, don't miss the first solo exhibition of Embodiment to include a video installation by Amelia Tovey!  Opening today, this show features 30+ photographs plus 15 minutes of video footage created on our road trip last June.
