Hysteria- Installation and Opening

 Posting this quite late (better late than never), here are the installation and opening images. Top images are by myself and the bottom two are by my significant other. Please pardon my squinting… I can not remember why I was not wearing my glasses that night.

New work and submission deadlines

Over the next little while I have 2 submission deadlines comming up. The first is for an OCAD University Alimni show next spring and the second is a full proposal for Xspace (OCAD U associated gallery). Slightly overwelming how much needs to be done but do-able.

      If any of you follow my Facebook fan page you are aware of the new work sitting around. Tea infused with a but of a watercolourist feel to them, some small meditations on tea and dao. I hope this medative series continues for quite some time. In addition my knitted series is in the planning stages of a continuation. Alot is going on. Updates may only occur once every two weeks unless there is enough to update earlier. I am organizeing my time for my art and Japanese study. Hopefully what I have learned ends up in my work.

Late night- Early morning


Things are due tomorrow. I plan on finishing up little things throughout the day. Artist Statement has gone through alot of revisions, CV is ready, Pricing is set (I think..) and Signage is ready to go. Knitting knitting and knitting whenever I can. The show will slowly come together. 6 pieces at least will be in the show. Small amount which accounts for trial and error.
Once the written work is sent out I can finish my promotional material. Only things right now that are keeping me going is tea, smokes, friends , good food and a walk once a night to have some time to re think things. Looking forward to seeing everyones work up together in the space.
Till tomorrow~
Goodnight
