Some Artfair craziness- SquirrelNinjas and Cake stickers!

[avad]

teasers:






@Art Palace room in the Aqua Hotel fair, Miami 2007.
they are infinitely disturbing and I want them. talk about mixed feelings. taxidermied squirrels? in crocheted ninja suits?? help! !! I don't know WhAt I feel! I guess it's not surprising since I still feel that way about Annette Messager's famous piece with the dead baby birds in ponchos.
I particularly love this lil rascal.you don't suppose i could get a live squirrel to wear this for me do you? possibly?


then at David Castillo Gallery in the Wynwood District during ArtWalk:
ok so who is planting these traps for my neurotic obsessive side? art made completly of stickers....in various category areas...like pandas or houses or puppies....this closeup is of a cake section...which as you know...could be my undoing.

here's what the full pieces look like. then up close it's just hundreds and hundreds of leeetle stickers. (!!) this is when the brain turns off and you're just in childish bliss.

:( did the squirrels die naturally?
I liked the squirrels until I realized from your comments that they were real under the suits.

Hi there! I am simply amazed at your patience and attention to detail. The birthday cake has such a sense of depth and colour balance. Incredible work! K
