Julie Baugnet & Philippe Costaglioli: In Collaboration

Philippe and I have known each other for several years and discovered that we both kept journals. We are both professors at St. Cloud State University. Philippe teaches Film Studies; I teach Graphic Design. We met one day during coffee and I discovered that Philippe had “piles of journals” in the French, English, and Catalan languages. In brief, Philippe writes words, and I make images. To start our collaboration, I bound two journals and we exchanged them periodically. These two journals are filled with experiments — Philippe gets ideas from my images, and I am inspired by his stories and poems. The work presented here is what has evolved from our first year of collaboration.
