Lexi Wilson-- Weekly Artist Post

In this post, I'm going to talk about Joshua Lutz bookwork, specifically that in his project Hesitating Beauty. In this project, Lutz comes to terms with his mother's mental illness. He does this by documenting; documenting expressions, specific moments, and also combining his images with archival ones. He combines the images with text whose sources are not always obvious. The form of these images in a book adds to the meaning of the work. It has a somewhat family album attribute, and is a collection of feelings and associations.
