the colours of kahlo

travelled by train to toronto

colours of Kahlo

this makes total sense to me. you?

Kahlo’s emotional frankness, bravery, and strength are long time inspirations

and their story together is endlessly fascinating

…also made me long for the food of Puebla

i am inviting frida and diego to my fantasy dinner party

and will get them to bring the mole

thank you toronto for the dose of urbanity

solution

i am preparing a canvas for an upcoming live art project

 

strips of paper

 

when faced with a few challenges

unsurprisingly

i find my solution in cutting strips of paper

beautiful italian-made paper

new german-made scissors

precise straight lines

it was truly a joyful meditative experience

and i have my solution

 

more to come about the project…

fresh start

the garbage shed is gone

vanished from my life

as gone as 2012

goodbye shed

i only noticed this morning

i am a little upset

but i am taking it as a sign

…a fresh start in 2013

(and a reminder to finally frame the shed series)

wishing you, dear shed

and all

the very best in the new year!

polaroid

had some good ole’fashioned polaroid fun down south

thanks to the impossible project film

something special in having to choose so carefully your shot

roughly half of them turned out

i regret deeply my “beach rooster” and “giant lobster” snaps not developing

terribly exciting when it works though!

fun fun fun
