“The images that comprise this book come from two sheets slides that I have held onto for almost thirty years now. Over that time I have projected them talks I gave here and there, although never a talk devoted solely to the person that took them.That would be Laurie Parsons, an artist who was active between 1986 and 1994, a period of about 9 years . In the first three, she focused on found objects, things she would bring back from the urban, the natural, industrial environment, or their intersection.”—Bob Nickas, 2021
