Congrat @_chump on your solo at @weirdhues. Here are some details as the night wound down. . . Seeing so many people in a state of JOY last night was so powerful. Thinking on costume and adornment as inhabiting divine aspects of self, photos like these feel like breathing into the full expression of humanity that is so often denied for the sake of a readable* and digestable* narrative. But the thing about readability is.....who needs to know? Claiming a right to BE with no qualifier or explanation feels vital right now. Let yourself be complex, glue some clouds on your face. . . #contemporaryart #queeraesthetics #photography #weirdhues #chump #southbay #sandiego #clubkids #costume
I'm so excited to be showing this work I created in conjunction with Krishna Vidodaria at the Salk institute. Krishna and I were paired together by curator Chi Essary for Illuminations, a show that combines science and art, which will open at the San Diego Art Institute Feburary 8th. . . During the exhibition you will be able to read about our interaction and the impact of her research on this piece, or you can come to the opening and chat with us in person. . . SDAI is nestled in balboa park and wheelchair accessible with parking nearby, click over to @sandiegoartinstitute for details on the event. Thanks for looking, see you there. . . #contemporaryart #fiberart #embroidery #krishnavadodaria #akikosurai #sandiegoartinstitute #salkinstitute #scienceandartisthesame
