Intersection for the Arts says…

Ten years ago, Migdalia Valdes decided she would snap a roll of film a day for the rest of her life. The goals of this ambitious undertaking were simple enough — to keep in constant practice, develop artistic stamina, and eventually erode altogether the stubborn division between life and art. Through steady habit, the photographer not only advanced her craft, but also developed a new way of seeing, learning to shape her memory visually. Intersection for the Arts highlights the best of Valdes' black-and-white memory book, pulling together fleeting images of local streets, bathers, frozen trees, and other scraps of a life shifting and progressing with eyes wide open.
