Bad Bish

Just so y'all know where I'm coming from and put my ideas into context- Kiki Smith does it so well. Making gore look damn preddy- simple sculptural ideas representing mortality, nature and in most cases, feminism (of course).

Kiki- daym gurl, you got it.




'Veins and Arteries'


'Shed'

'Red Spill'

Seedy Art

Ai Weiwei in the Tate Modern Turbine Hall:



Not as effective with the seeds cordoned off, but still pretty daym sweet. Wanted to bag me some seeds, but the security dude was diligent and could see the desire in my eyes. Crap thief...

I don't want much in life, but I wanted one o' these oversized porcelaln sunflower seeds..
They're so... Seedy.

It's been a while...

... and here I am.
I spent a while gallivanting through Thailand and India, enjoying my freedom from the Foundation Year.
But now I'm back, and baby am I.

I'll ease in gently with some pretty things...

Thailand- Same, Same... But Different.






To be honest, the music in Thailand was tacky and irritating at best. So I pick this one, the final song played at Lotus Bar, Koh Tao on each and every night.
Beach mats, candles, beer... and Miss American Pie.

In Bangkok, we put our lives in the hands of a man I fondly refer to as 'Death Tuc'. He rode his tuc-tuc like a true Hell's Angel and actually mowed over a motorcyclist during our journey.
We just had time to exchange an awkward glance with the poor motorcyclist at our feet before Death Tuc was off again, leaving him in dust.

So yes, we were involved in a Hit-and-Run.

Brutha for a Sista

Continuing along the Neo- Soul vibe I got goin on, I bring you a Brutha.


D'Angelo and Erykah are two sides of the same coin, except she is of a sound mind and D'Angelo, well,
isn't.
Crackin bod though.
'Brown Sugar' is always a classic, but it goes without saying 'Untitled' takes the whole damn cookie jar...
Guys, embrace your inner Mo and drool over this baybay:

Also, her latest vid made everyone sit up and hear. Cuz when all else fails, nudity wins.

Girl Crush


Okay, as previously mentioned I am not afraid to embrace my lezzer tendencies and right now I am totally crushing on a woman... Namely Wangechi Mutu.

I LOVE HER. Saw some of her work in Tate Liverpool, and the more I see the more I totally dig. Working in multi-media (seriously, she chucks everything in there) she creates these gorge fantasy women, varying from the ornate to the grotesque. Themes of fashion, female sexuality and ethnic identity float around in there too, which of course, is always good times!

Splashy colours and gorge women? I'm done.

Chrissy Angliker

So i was procrastinating on the net (portfolio assessment tomorrow- tonnes of work to do) and these liccle gems fell on my screen... Now, anyone that knows me knows that dripping paint floats my boat, and so do tasty faces. Put those two together and i'm DONE. Who needs a man when you can look at pretty pictures... Mmmmm.

Bold, Beautiful and BALD

I may claim to be non-lezzer, but lets face it... I can appreciate a hot female when I see one! In keeping with my new hair, these babes are fierce and bald.
Feast your eyes on these crackers...
