Archiving Our Anxiety: A Conversation with Dawna Rose and Betsy Rosenwald

“…every day since the Women’s March. I would read about something and I would make a sign about it. It was about Trump, feminism, Indigenous rights. It was about the birds, disappearing nature. So, it was about broad topics and then the pandemic came into it. But it’s all very, very connected.” ~ Dawna Rose

On Time

Time, depending on who you are, where you are, and when you are, can mean many different things. Time is a unit of measure. Time is an experience. Time is saved. Time is spent. Time is wasted. Time is money. Time flies. Or it drags on. Time is a construct, a concept, a currency. Time is attention. Time is value. And for some, time is a medium.
