The Molalla Eye
A basalt rosette in the Molalla River watershed becomes an image of attention: an iris, a fingerprint, a ripple, a listening ear, and a center radiating outward.
Not a newsletter. An exchange of thoughtful letters, field notes, reading, and return.
Correspondence is how Cure + Era continues after women return home: seasonal letters, printed field notes, reading lists, postcards, handwritten notes, and future publications.

A slower form of participation: paper, patience, address, and the human hand.
Notes from the watershed, the body, the archive, and the questions we have not resolved.

A basalt rosette in the Molalla River watershed becomes an image of attention: an iris, a fingerprint, a ripple, a listening ear, and a center radiating outward.
Correspondence still deserves a stamp.
Cure + Era is not a digital commons. We invite correspondence through paper, patience, and the human hand. Write to request information about future gatherings, program materials, printed prompts, seasonal field notes, reading lists, journals, or a future Cure + Era zine — small ways for the work to continue after people return home.
There is something different that happens when one person puts pen to paper for another. We still believe in that penpal way.

What are you listening for?
What is asking to be brought into form?
What becomes possible when the body is no longer bracing?
To what watersheds do you belong?
Some questions ask to be answered. Others ask to be lived.
If you recognize the difference, write to us.
If you want a penpal, tell us why.
