Don’t Diffuse The Light; Shine It All
An Interview in The Review Review
with William Slaughter, Editor of Mudlark


“We mean to present and preserve
accomplished work that locates
itself anywhere on the spectrum
of contemporary practice. Although
we are not innocent, we do imagine
ourselves capable of surprise.”
