Yvonne Dutchover: Wait Watchers
http://dutchover.blogspot.com/2013/02/wait-watchers.html
Musings on writing, creativity, art and life. Aware that strangers often make fun of her, Haley Morris-Cafiero. Created a series of self-portraits shot in public in which people in the background are laughing, pointing, or staring. I heard about her work through this article. Here is how I interpret her project: she transformed painful scenarios into art. She made herself vulnerable. And she is definitely stimulating a dialogue about weight (check out the comments).

Yvonne Dutchover: April 2012
http://dutchover.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Musings on writing, creativity, art and life. Length and genre: what the heck is going on with my fiction? Liam was born almost 18 months ago now (sheesh). Since then, I have written a few shorter pieces. Funny, because I hadn't written short stories since college. But at this stage in life (read: sleep deprivation), I don't have the attention span to hold all of the narrative threads of a novel in my brain. The length started scaring me a little, and then I got excited. My stories are growing again!
