Collaboration with Kim DeBord

Trade evolved out of a naturally existing gesture and a desire to document like moments. Removing ourselves from the restrictions of studio and gallery, we work with and in our daily lives, hoping to evoke the value of the quotidian and the value of relationships.

The documented actions embody a universal language of sustenance, trading goods/services, giving, receiving, and resourcefulness. It is an essential communication that, in some societies, has been replaced with a priority rooted in convenience.
