Guilmoth, Pia Paulina & Bull Saffire, Jesse: Fishworm

The book collects these rescues, re-assemblies, and accidents: material both tender and grotesque, mundane and uncanny. Among them are photographs taken by Pia and Jesse on 8 MP digital cameras while trespassing and scavenging for material, alongside images from Pia’s own family archive. In their hands, the cast-offs of rural central Maine transform into a jumbled chronicle — a history that never asked to be preserved, yet somehow survived, soggy and stubborn.

All in all, ‘Fishworm’ is about dykes digging through trash.
