Lets start

Today has been one of those days where you can't quite make out if it's a good or a bad one. The sky is grey i may be forced to leave certain things. On a plus the exhibition yesterday went surprisingly well, after many doubts about the space etc not to mention the timeline i ripped down (oops). I spent literally all day before 6Pm to film and edit the different film clips, go to the space at the moonfish to find working TVs, which proved harder than i thought. Right up till 6pm when we had to stop and clear everything out for the preview at 7pm. I surprisingly pulled this whole thing off and surprisingly i will stop using surprisingly before someone slaps me.
But this easter i promise will be a good productive holiday, i'll have to make it even if it isn't.
Also reconnecting with old friends. My friend from Korea from when i was little just messaged me!!! The wonders!

Lets stop

I feel like there is so much going on right now. I missed a chance to participate in an earlier exhibition a few weeks back due to my laziness and i feel i don't have enough time to even do anything, which is a complete lie. I have an exhibition tomorrow which i am actually going to participate in which will hopefully result to an endless night of working. In the mean time I feel my choice of over complicating things does me no good, so back to simple life and simple ideas.

I give you this stopmotion animation by taiwanese artist Bang-Yao Liu. SO simple yet the idea works effectively especially with the music. If only things were this simple in life.

Post fashion week

SInce i am not of the elite. I had to watch the shows on youtube. I never really mentioned any really but i should let you know that i have spent many a nights watching these fashion shows and googling who wore what who fell on the runway etc. Anyway last night after i read so many things on the Dolce and Gabbana fall 2010 catwalk, i finally gave into youtubing the video. I think it ended spectacularly, seeing all the models at the end parading down the runway with a backdrop of all the seamstresses, co-workers, what have you gather around the screen witnessing an end to the collection, left me rather satisfied, not too sure about the collection itself thought, while many are pushing the limits within fashion. I just felt there should have been more, or is less is more? here is a question to debate.

Square triangle dot

Ohhhh so excited. Productive day today made 5 metal squares in metal work for my animation a bit excited and also fashion update is it wrong to like the Henry Holland shoes for Debenhams? second question, why is it wrong to think it's wrong for liking the shoes??

Lets pull some shapes

This is the making of the video when Rog goes momentarily 'insane' only for a while, lol. You got to choose between a friend or a cool video. I think i am in love with them.



This is actually amazing!! feast for your eyes

Gego and me

A recent trip to the city library in Manchester led me to a book. This book led to my dream, and now i can't find this book. Ok this is a talk of a lunatic but seriously after countless search for janet taylor or triangles on a corner, i am starting to think she doesn't actually exist and perhaps i made her up. In the mean time Gego does exist, thank god for that. She produces large sculptural pieces that looks a bit like cobwebs, thats a very sophisticated description coming from me. Will this mean i cant produce this dream i had? Quest to go to the library and look for the book. In the mean time i am no longer exhibiting at link gallery as i have rightfully wasted a month away playing spider solitaire, and didn't produce any work. Oh well lets hope i do something for the Test Exhibition. I need to get a move on someone needs to slap me right now. rant over yes thanks, bye.

Pierre Debusschere

Another filmmaker producing fashion short films (also a photographer). I need to make one very soon!!!

More of his work can be found here

This reminds me my O.T.S project (on the spot) I need it to come alive and actually do something, perfect destination somewhere with a beach and caves, somewhere in England. Make a short film chat with the locals.

okay

This is me kind of drunk writing right now. Well not really. Gawdd so much has happened just went out to Now Wave, was a good girls night out, minus the weird guys, i swear there's always the typical weird guys dancing round girls all the time.
Oh also Alice in Wonderland in 3d, i don't quite know how to describe it, it's like a love hate kind of thing and i can't quite decide if i liked it or hated it.
Gawddd im so weirded out right now, i don't know what's happening and it's frustrating. Or maybe it's just me?

perfection

Photo from Dropsnap.jp
This is possibly the most perfect headscarf ever, amazing pastel colours!!! I wished people wore more pastels like that so nice and sweet and look at her hair streaks of pink, ace!

Boooooooooooooom

Ok so i've been going on this art site called booooooom.com, which is nice and all that. jeff hamada on the other hand, also the founder of the website, is an artist himself, mainly working with quirky illustrations. I really wanted to show his work cause i really like it, simple as.

Balmain

I've been dying to see the new collection for fall 10/11

I managed to find on the entire web just one video from the catwalk which was telegraph.co.uk
I can tell you i was actually excited, which is no suprise as i've always liked Balmain and the impact it has on people. It's always dramatic and daring almost attention seeking, which is not a bad thing. So excited to see so many gold sparkly shiny things!!

This collection takes influence from the court of versailles, from the brocade prints to the 'Over the top' sequins and fringing. Not that they would have had 'over the top sequins' back then, but you get the idea yarr?

Ok just to quote, which retard earlier on said there wasn't any videos. Err that would be me. Oui.Apologies.



As for the vid comments, i must admit yes the collection does seem almost predictable with the metallics and dresses and can almost pass for last season, but i still like it. Even for the lack of change.

Fill your bags

excitement excitement today!!! i went to the Retro Rehab sale today £10 for a bag, and ran round like headless chicken all morning picking up dresses and trying to stuff them in my tiny bag. I can confirm though that all this effort was not wasted as i emptied out my bag i actually picked up quite a lot of things, whilst many people left with full bags mine was more than full, it was excessively full if thats the right way of putting it. I even got told by the shop assistant to take some stuff out, eek.

Oh well now i am the proud owner of 17 new dresses or so and some random lovely scarfs thrown in the mix i am expecially in love with the pastel one!!!! Photos soon.

OK Go - This Too Shall pass

Happy times

It is march and the sky is getting brighter by the day. As for me fashion seems to be getting duller for me. Im trying to mix in with the crowd now. Lately even tho prints amazes me i kind of feel a bit bored now i need something new in my life something exciting. Any suggestions? Oh and 3 exhibitions on the go, first one in two weeks and i have produced zero work so far. Oh brain. Oh well.
