(2023) At the start of this series I thought espresso was too good for me. Too cool, too hardcore. As a drink, less a concept, although in saying that, perhaps they’re the same. But the collection has crossed seas with me, and now, I find myself in the boot of the heel that is Salento Italy. I have too, found myself opting for the 1€ Italian black water. You know what helps it along? A dash of sugar. Even better? A pasticciotto; the local pastry born here 300 years ago, far too dangerously close to my front door. I am a transitioned woman. An espresso drinker. Everything tastes better when served with a “Ciao!”.

Framing

Framed within a handmade white shadow box with a floated mount and 2-inch reveal. With museum grade UV filtering plexiglass.

This is my favorite way to frame, the white wood is simple and clean and the shadow box/floated mount makes the paper appear floating, not touching the back board nor glass.

Please allow up to 2 weeks for framing and processing. All orders ship with UPS from NYC. All sales are final and no returns or exchanges.
