Lately I've been so caught up in things I haven't taken the time to really think out loud to myself like i normally do. the other night though, right before i went to bed, I had a series of ideas that kept me awake. I feel like I am able to reach an equilibrium now, where I don't have to completely go off my rocker in order to achieve articulated ideas. Granted I am not generating as many ideas because I am not completely submersed in them all of the time, but it's nice to just experience without thinking too much some times too. Watching the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air every night in order to keep myself from thinking began to get very tiring(not to mention my bed is way more comfortable than the couch... although.... I have gotten compliments on the comfortability of my couch... I must say, it is quite soft and cozy....) But ANYWAYS, I'm gonna be submitting a triptych into a juried art show this December.. If i get in and go to the finals I will post the piece and the artist statement here on the blog. It's the piece I have kept for the most part under wraps. I think I get kinda paranoid about posting what I consider to be my best work online... it's so easy to just take pictures and share them all around you know... maybe im just kinda crazy or something.. I dunno.. it concerns me at times. In addition to the juried show, but a little less important, I am going to have a piece of art in a gallery in Long Beach named Koo's. I believe the piece is going up on January 3rd, but not positive. It's an installation.. and possibly a painting as welll.. but i will get pictures of either(or both) and post up on here too.
I'm SO excited!! going to Joshua tree with the photo department from CSULB on the 10-14 of January. Gaby is coming too and it's gonna be freakin awesome! I'm gonna have my new camera by then (crossed fingers) and i'll be able to really get some beautiful shots. We're gonna eat a tarantula like Bear from Man vs. Wild... Gonna be awesome.
I wish I had some images I wanted to include in this post.. I'll have pictures of my photography final up. It got hella great reviews from my professor. He told me it was perfect... It was a bitch battling dust... they were very minimal in form and shape, but very very heavy on content. I wrote a very eloquent artist statement for the piece, that was both complex but clear. I'll include that when i put the photos up.
CHRISTMAAAAAAAASSSSS!!!!
