Soft Pyramid[s]: Getting us all on the same [web] page. This little smörgåsbord of art, oddities, and visual culture is curated by Kelsey Halliday Johnson.

This little corner of the internet aims to make visual-thinking physical with the art and ideas I explore in my studio daily.Tumblr (3.0; @softpyramid)http://www.softpyramids.info/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/c26ad7e1af9a17b46d0caa951605aa05/tumblr_mn6orsuMIv1qex654o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Nat Ward<br/><em>He knew his days were numbers</em><br/>2013<br/>42 Photographs, 10 x 20 feet<br/><br/>Handsome install of work, all photos done while walking from Brooklyn to Philadelphia.
