I really dig what greg is doing with his recent project. this idea and these worrksspeaktoth kind of separation and loss that happens at the end of a relationship. in a way there is a bit of a "f you" you can be replaced but I really more feel that this is about that disconect that happens when anything familiar and great ends. what happens after? there's almost the stanges of death. bargining, fighting, depression but in any process is acceptance. This person was in my life. and none one could have really been the person for that siuation. at least that's my first read. I dig it, people also should.

from "Other Worldly"

Dioramas and models offer virtually limitless possabilities of recasting the world. Filled with hidden spaces, private realms and public specticals. They portray the world with an unsual intimacy. They are day dreams on an itimate scale; condensing and distiling and emotional atmosphere.

Coming back strong

Summer is over and I promise to post some new stuff up soon. If anyone still reads this or ever has
Things that i have been thinking about:
  1. narrative
  2. pop up books
  3. freedom of the lens
  4. Eastman's black box and zieses cold eye
  5. materials and their meaning, why are news papers so flimsy, it isn't cheap to publish any more
  6. Understanding the construction, is that important
  7. artist statement.. i haz none...
  8. stepping up the job search
  9. Stepping up the posting.
  10. Mobile blogging. Has been keeping me looking at colors. Problem is mostly on the train and then i forget to post when I get home. Mobile blog fail. See my profile for my mobile randomness of color and patterns
  11. collaborations? how do i do these? its hard when your a control freak in your art
  12. who cares? meh
  13. just to make it thirteen cause i like that number
  14. ok so 14 is cool too cause i have been thinking about dektol and oriental paper....hhmmmmmm silvery deliciousness.
Things that have happened:
Exhibition lab was great. if you haven't looked into it. google and check it out.
Opening was packed for the 100 degrees it was and people were pyched for the work. Need to follow up on a few things from that. and get more of these pieces up on my official site.
Work came back from Tokyo. Still in great condition. Was so happy to work with Project Bash show and that crew.
Having the idea to curate a show. I wish i knew how to get space but i guess you get space by trying to get space. we shall see and hopefully i can get some of the people I look to for inspiration some exposure. Looking to stay Brooklyn local, maybe contact gowance for some time there. it seemed reasonable and is still supporting local artist.
That's all for now, if you read this.... comment and let me know.

some pieces

Some things are so ridiculous you have to make some comments on them. between the deficit and a crashing economy, why were people so focused on his birth certificate. Now i want to see every candidates from this point forward. If not done it will prove it was all racist.  Though the same people also want all green cards if your darker skin in AZ or are "looking for the immigrant vote, you know Mexico and Puerto Rico." ignorance is ridiculous.

some new goodies

this started it all. its a bit hard to work with, maybe finish it for personal usage but doesn't got with the set Em working on now
not to thrilled with this now but it got me started... here's the "finished" piece. maybe ill come back to it.
YUS! BBG magazine cut apart with goo focus, decent color i think. I like both the straight and this version but I'm sticking with this.
WSJ on the Lydian civil war. next one i plan for more and maybe more of a scape rather then a pile with pop outs, try to make the materials more an environment rather then a source for pop-up-ery.

its almost there. Im to shot to shoot, ill finish this tomorrow






The logistics of this are a lot harder then it looked.  trust me.. there are a bunch of screws tape and rope all hidden in the under pinning. Sounds like a night in fashion week eh?

my studio... home sweet home.



trying some Kruger'isms

started like this but wasn't "cutting it"
progressed to this which I'm starting to feel.
I was reacting to much to the photo's in the papers and in the news when i really have to focus down on what news is. They are words and images. My post structuralist friends will kill me for forgetting the term for this but its late and im tiered. so there.  These silhouettes start to become icons more then specifics, allowing for more ot happen i feel. and cutting through a whole paper really allows the multiples to happen to certain figures while maintaining the singular as some parts. I think these are going in this direction, set hopeful to come soon aka tomorrow night.
