    In Nov/Dec 2018 I was lucky enough to be an artist at the Rauschenberg Residency on Captiva Island, FL. I, along with 8 other artists, lived and worked on the Rauschenberg property – a gorgeous, rambling tropical island haven – for six extraordinary weeks. While there, I set up a little recording studio in the Waldo Cottage to record and mix Captiva, a five-song collection / experiment. A couple weeks in, it became clear that I couldn't possibly NOT make artwork to go along with the EP, as I was surrounded by Rauschenberg's influence, screenprints, equipment, experiments and energy. And so! Here we are. The Captiva lyric prints. Each made tenderly and obsessively by me. Historical aside – the Fish House was built in 1942 by J.N. "Ding" Darling, friend to President Roosevelt, cartoonist, satirist and once president of the National Wildlife Federation. It's also THE BEST place to watch the sunrise.

lyrics

sitting in my parents’ drive
wondering how i’ve become
the woman that i am
when all i ever wanna do is run
far from my obligations
far from my country
far from all i love

my sister thinks that i should
find myself a man
to help me carry the weight
someone to understand
but i tried that all before
and i don’t think
i’m cut out to be adored

what keeps me here
what keeps me waking up?

my cousin’s getting married
in the church today
i will wear a mask,
keep my pessimism at bay
i will bite my tongue
when i hear the vows
and i’ll join the cheering crowds

what keeps me here
what keeps me waking up?
