Honored to collaborate with Judd Hawk, who created visual works in response to two of my short stories: XOIHL, XELAT and GOLD VULTURE, BLACK LADDER, both from MINERALIS. At the artists’ reception at Abrams Claghorn Gallery in Albany, California, I read XOIHL, XELAT before one of the two incredibly potent works Judd had on display. Photograph by Mattia Alagna.
