my love for you.

Podcast: Sarah Applebaum.

Late, last summer I sat down with San Francisco artist Sarah Applebaum. Below are pics I took and our podcast. Although the podcast is a bit late -- what we talk about is relevant and I think you'll enjoy what Sarah has to say about creating and connecting to the larger world around her. Enjoy!

Katharina Grosse's Psychedelic Wonderland.

Mass MOCA is well known for it's larger than life exhibitions. And Katharina Grosse's One Floor Up More Highly is no exception. Although the show closed at the beginning of the month it would be rediculous of me to not post these images...mind-blowing color and scale. one word: LOVE.

Video: This is Not a Place.

I got pretty mesmerized watching Isaac Gale & David Jensen's film This is Not a Place. Made on location at Justin Vernon of Bon Iver's Wisconsin studio. I keep replaying it over and over. A little bit about the film (that originally accompanied a show at XYandZ Gallery, in Minneapolis, MN):

Compiled over the past year, the duo's film work traverses the wilds of April Base, the Wisconsin studio of Bon Iver's Justin Vernon. Trundling through rich forest landscapes and ephemeral, sculptural environments, the films’ pure visual moments mesh with graceful digital effects, creating entangled shrines and smoke-filled twilights. At its root, the work deals with themes of space--both external and psychological.

Jen Pack.

Chiffon. Thread. Wool. Yes, that is what you're seeing here. Beautiful work by Jen Pack.
