Hey sweet ones,
I’m so into making artwork for this solo exhibition I have in April that I’m neglecting a lot of other aspects of my life, like SG & social media. My heart is still beating & I’m lurking most days, but thought I’d say a quick hello so y’all know I’m still spinning on this globe.
So yeah! I’ve got my 1st solo exhibition in Sydney at Sabbia Gallery which opens the 20th of April. I’m making a heap of work & have literally got a village backing me up & helping me get it all together. I’ve only got a few more bits & pieces to make and then I’m finished & it’s off to the photographers.
I haven’t been shooting at all lately but here’s a lil selfie from the other week...that’s how slow I am with this shit you guys..
One of the pieces for my show is about the idea of posting on social media & the validation people seek with the whole process..I haven’t had a professional pic taken yet, but here it is in the studio:
It’s glass instax with this old box camera, a common thread within my artwork, juxtaposition between the past & present technologies.
I started teaching again this year at Sydney College of the Arts, continuing with the elective glassblowing course, and there’s so many students this term, I have 4 classes over 2 days. It’s a 4-hour commute for me, so I’ve been staying the night up there every week. I love teaching & so far my students are really great so that’s another thing that’s consuming the fuck out of me at the moment!
I’ve been taking this CBD oil for a few weeks now & to be honest, I’m not sure it’s helping, tho I have no idea how to regulate it, I’m taking it morning & evening but keep changing the doses because I’m not sure it’s working?
For the real deal, I harvested my plants I was growing and was gonna hold off on smoking weed until this exhibition opens, but I cracked and smoked some last week & it was super strong and I got fuuuuucked up lol. It’s a Sativa strain & super nice, hoping to get on the growing wagon once Australia goes with medical in full force one of these days. I love growing, just the smoking part I can only do (or attempt) to do in moderation.
Sorry it’s been so long since we had a chat, missing my SG fam so much @rambo @missy
Hope you’re all traveling well, love your guts ✌🏼💚
