It’s been a long time but I know lot’s of women

Hello there! I have not blogged in over a year because I forgot how to login. We all have many passwords. Yesterday I listened to three artist interviews: Kiki Smith, Mickalene Thomas, and Faith Ringgold. I like hearing women / nonbinary career stories. Their approach and backgrounds are all very different, and I appreciate being… Continue reading It’s been a long time but I know lot’s of women

Trans-disciplinary Live Journal

We are always changing, always reaching a new phase or a new understanding, a closer relationship to the truth. I think of every new artwork as a more direct channel to one’s emotional intellect (the shared subconscious), than was the artwork before. I observe when an artist has that very direct channel, unblocked, without any… Continue reading Trans-disciplinary Live Journal

Scripted

It’s been awhile since I posted about art because I’VE BEEN LIVING IT… mic drop. But seriously, these last several months have been art bananas and I don’t mean Comedian. Let’s jump in. Myself and my three bandmates, Daniele Yandel, Tasha Lutek, Erica Schreiner, had a 2 week residency at Millennium Film Workshop for our… Continue reading Scripted

Films that are your thoughts because it happens so quickly, you don’t have time to contemplate what it means to you. Philosophies about art as reproduction in the contemporary world by Walter Benjamin (1892-1940). I… Continue reading The distracted mass

Let’s Gogh!

What an exciting time to be breathing. It is around 10 pm and the rain’s pleasant pitter patter calms my brain. I love the sounds I hear through our bedroom window that faces the backyard, like my landlord Cecilia whistling for her cats to come in at night, and distant voices from the high decks… Continue reading Let’s Gogh!

A month under my belt

I have been in my studio for a whole month and I am fully satisfied and ecstatic by the value it has given me and all it has allowed me to learn about myself. It is funny that I assign these attributes to an inanimate physical location, when it was me who sought it out… Continue reading A month under my belt

Lynch lives the art life

It has been over a week, but I haven’t forgotten my blog. I am excited and moved by the idea of consistency and longevity in one’s art practice. Recording your thoughts via blog, journal, etc. is a beneficial thing to do, simply because it is an act of consistency. I appreciate routine- and getting lost… Continue reading Lynch lives the art life

Kin, Ancestral Celebration

Today is my Grandmaw Jean’s 91st Birthday. I called her and she told me she loves me, for the first time I believe. Not because she doesn’t love me, but because her generation doesn’t show it. I call my Grandmothers every week. Talking on the phone to my Grandmothers is one of the sweetest gifts… Continue reading Kin, Ancestral Celebration
