Processing drives me crazy.

In a good way, and a bad way.
Have fun!

Scrapbook your clothes.

So so happy final projects are over. Although I did have fun learning how to use a sewing machine, I am having quite a bit more fun taking a break from it.

Fashioning Felt.

I finally made it home last night after a long struggle with customs and borders that I was not permitted to cross. Lesson learned: never, ever leave your passport on the plane, (at least if you want to keep your sanity in check). I will make it out to Switzerland soon though. This spring break just wasn't the time I suppose. Oh well, I got a couple of extra days in with the family in London so I can't complain much.

We made a quick trip up to the Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum today to see the Fashioning Felt exhibition. Overall, I very much enjoyed it and was particularly mesmerised by this room draped with felt fibres. Too bad we weren't allowed to take pictures, so I had to steal these off google. You can view more photos on the museum website. 

It's meant to be 18ºC tomorrow. Time for bare legs! Hooray!

Crafties.

So last weekend I went to my favourite little antique market on 25th street to collect some materials for my mood board for my 2D project. I picked up a few little trinkets for a total of 20 dollars and left feeling like a happy camper. Here are a few photos of my discoveries. 

On another note, my best pal, Hillary, is landing - oh wait - right now (!) into JFK. I am waiting for her to call me and get her cute little butt over here and give me a hug. It has been a long 7 months without you!

Bisosus!

Stream of consciousness.

I very much enjoying being the photographer's assistant - especially with the weather being so lovely lately. L has chosen to represent her stream of consciousness via photographs for her visual diary class this semester. Consequently, I am being photographed a lot lately - eating, sleeping, breathing, being. Plus I get to snap the shots that she sets up and feel special. These were taken in Washington Square Park the other night.

Check out this tune that I have drained my iPod dry listening to.

kiss, D.

Just have to pack.

Found this picture on another site. Thought it was wonderful as it is the exact day I arrived and signed in at the Parsons building in New York City. 

Now there's just one more day of the semester and I am headed to Whistler at 4:30 AM on Saturday! 

Oh speaking of which, was a little spooked to read the story about the pole collapsing on that gondola in Whistler. Oh well, nothing will keep me from the slopes, it's been too darn long!

kiss, D 

Hang in there.

Final projects are almost over.

P.S. Jeff Wall is possibly my favourite photographer. You'll be seeing more soon.

kiss, D

Head, wear.

3D class always generates some fun creations. My pal Blair made the beautiful head piece I am sporting out of copper wire and a great amount of time and patience. I put her in my head piece made from some straws I bought at the dollar store and some gold wire. 

Wine calls! Happy weekend everyone. 

kiss, D.
