Jen Urso: The long walk home
Jen Urso’s latest project, “White Space,” is a fifty-plus-mile walk—from Reading to Lansdale, Pennsylvania, two towns she lived in growing up. She’s chronicling the trek here. Poke around on her White Space website and you can also see various portfolios of drawings and photos and other related work.
She’s on day seven. From her latest post:
I’m becoming concerned about my sister Tina and her blistered feet. All 3 of us are sore and in pain but she keeps pounding the pavement where it could get worse. I think I have either lightly sprained my ankles or the tendons around my feet or I’m developing some other tendon issues. Physical pain is not something I factored in to this trip and I’m hoping it doesn’t become a dominant force. The walk is weakening and strengthening me at the same time.
