exhibition images....finally!!

Here are the images from my thesis exhibition back in April...now that I am a graduate, I have FREE TIME.

Three paintings, 3x3'6", hung in this order depicting the symbol of my body as it is present amongst the symbols of my childhood.




Hung to either side of these paintings were five 3x3' maps, the centers of which were detailed with drawings of my memories of the floor plans of the home I grew up in.




On the back wall is a collage of some of the drawings and sketches that I used to collect research and to paint from. Sydney and Jamie-Thank you.

Viral Weezer

I can't decide if this is only mildly entertaining or a brilliantly funny take on internet "viral" videos. Give a listen (and a look) to Weezer playing "Pork and Beans":

Who's That Girl?

I don't know, but she's DAAAANCING!

What the crazy. Apparently this was part of a pilot for Yo Gabba Gabba but it never made the cut:

Along the same lines, but Dutch, not as cool and public/social art commentary...yet still lovely.

so tired...

“Come unto me. Come unto me, you say. All right then, dear my Lord. I will try in my own absurd way. In my own absurd way I will try to come unto you, a project which is in itself by no means unabsurd. Because I do not know the time or place where you are. And if by some glad accident my feet stumble on it, I do not know that I would know that I had stumbled on it. And even if I did know, I do not know for sure that I would find you there. I do not know for sure that it was indeed your name that made my tears come when I wrote it with my finger in the wet. And if you are there, I do not know that I would recognize you. And if I recognized you, I do not know what that would mean or even what I would like it to mean. I do not even well know who it is you summon, myself.

For who am I? I know only that heel and toe, memory and metatarsal, I am everything that turns, all of a piece, unthinking, at the sound of my name. Am where my feet take me. Come unto me, you say. I, all of me, unknowing and finally unknowable even to myself, turn. O lord and lover, I come if I can to you down through the litter of any day, through sleeping and waking and eating and saying goodbye and going away and coming back again. Laboring and laden with endless histories heavy on my back.”

-from The Alphabet of Grace by Frederick Buechner

The show is down, back in my studio and my mind is ready to move forward! My body, however, does not agree, and I am sleeping a lot. Will be editing and posting images soon...Jenny had to take them as I cannot make a camera function. PFF.

Is Nesbit hibernating or is it like Kenobi being tortured by it girly parts?
