Miami Madness- Day 3- Friday Dec2
Dec. 8th, 2005 12:52 pmFriday Jane and I sleep in again, and then spend the morning talking...going through some pretty serious issues, looking at love and relationships, past lives and present, finances and dreams and deep-rooted fears. She's going through some rough stuff...:(. tears then meditation. After a while we gathered ourselves up to go drink in a bit of nurturing sunshine at the beach to fuel our day.
Slowww start but eventually we make it to -scope. Michael Sellinger is at the door thankfully and let's us in. We find Seth asleep (or practically) on a big white chair in the lobby and tease him a bit before moving on. Started up on the 5th floor and made our way down. I only made it to the 3rd floor in the time it took Jane to see the whole thing. *sigh* Enjoying talking with Kasia Kay (sweeet installation of little birds in her room made me smile). Also talking with Patrick Heide, liking many artworks there...subtle, text based, obsessive. some made by mechanical typewriter.., others reminding me of my readings series but in drawing. Awesome video works by Erin O'Hara(?) in 'Curator's Office Gallery'- morphing fractalized animations of food that seemed so....much like life evolving...fascinating to watch . But my absolute favorite yet again (I fell in love with these at -scopeNY) were works by Ruud van Empel. You'd really have to see them in person to get the eerieness of them...digital collage that is so crisp and so...odd surreal too perfect...the EYES...I can only think of the next stage of digital avatars and the strange future we are entering. The new series I loved but can't find any pics online.( read more )
