Light Reflections

This project features artist Jeffrey Haste and poet Teresa Carson who is also a co-founder of Art in Common Places.

Although Jeff Haste, the Maine-based publisher of Deerbrook Editions and the designer for all of the Art in Common Places broadsides, and Teresa Carson, a Sarasota-based poet published by Deerbrook Editions, are friends who speak on a regular basis about their individual projects, Light Reflections is their first collaborative project. As Jeff wrote, “[The inspiration for our broadside] came from a poster of an artwork from a gallery that had been folded up so that when I opened it and tacked it to the wall in my painting space the eight parsed sections from the folding reflected light in different ways. Teresa liked the idea of reflection as overlays, and the expansion of the rectangular, almost window like panels, and this led to further discussion about grids, calendars, and time.”
