Home is where the art is

 There's a lot going on right now. Working on a poster for a musical, a project with another artist, learning french, starting up with forever aloe vera, the possibility ambassadors and of course making things. So I went back to my roots at "island land" to get a break from everything. Decided I was gonna do nothing, which turned out to be quite difficult. I ended up making these neck pieces and two braclets from something called "zpaghetti" (stretch fabric) that I got at the weavers fair 2011.

 

Shoulderloaded little black

When I went to India I fell in love with a roll of sequin decorations that very much looked like the eyes of peacock feathers... in gold! I stitched them on by hand onto this dress I made, one by one. This is no longer just any little black dress with shoulder puffiness overload! (Shoulderload?) 

 You should atleast once in your life atleast sew something by hand. It will help you put things in perspective. In India alot of things handmade and it's so cheap it makes me want to puke. Still people keep on dickering because they just don't get how much work is behind it all. Please, show some respect for the crafts.

Waves of space

What stormy ocean 

is not the industry in the fabric of life?

What came from our hands

has gone out of our hands

to consume us completely.

 The thread of destiny never seams to end

Still it can be broken at any moment
