Collaborators’ Q&A
What is behind your choice of this piece of art in response to the topic “Guns in American Culture”? Artist Jonathan Clyde Frey: I designed the first timeline a few years ago as a way to think through the tension between protecting personal freedoms and living with their consequences.
Why did this piece of art resonate for you or seem like it would give you an avenue into writing about this subject? Poet Maureen Seaton: It’s a chart, a diagram, colorful, historical… Frey’s art felt real to me, beautiful, cold, and terrifying.
