A Four-Hour Visit to A Cool Museum (Ruth asawa special exhibition at sf moma)

Dan and I went to the SF MOMA on 5/25, which is the day that these events transpired.

Welcome to the end of the trip. We spent most of our time today in the SF MOMA, which was awesome. We both made sketches of the pieces in the Ruth Asawa special exhibition. It was a mega walkthrough of her whole career. We spent the majority of our time in this part of the museum.

👌 Saw Ruth Asawa exhibition, which was very cool and spanned her entire career.

Her wire sculptures are really something. She made so many of them. There were some great examples of her explorations too, and some of them were in 2D, like these that she did in halftone sheets:

It was a multi-room event. They were even showing the doors that she had carved for her San Francisco home! Crazy. Big doors - I wish a took a pic but I didn't.

It was around this time that the film I had in my camera got very stuck. I think the part that was hanging on to the inside of the film canister ripped off, so the film just spun around the winding side of the camera when I went to crank the shutter winder. I switched to my phone and started taking these vertical panorama photos instead. As Dan said, the film camera is a limitation for creative purposes, and now I return to the device that has it all, but with a new set of limitations and creative idears.
