And the search continues

This light (Barn Light Outback Warehouse Pendant) is so outta contol fantastical that I NEED it in my house. In every room; hanging from the trees outside in my yard; and in my car. Ok. You get how much I love this light.

Found it here.

Just at work perusing blogs to see whats what in the design world and came across this cutlery set. I want I want I want. (Found at Remodelista)

Operation Opening: Success!

What a delight it was to go back to Peg city. The show was a huge success, and I loved getting my hands dirty selecting the drawings-and oh what a job it was, and mounting the show. We decided to use push pins which resulted in my thumb feeling like I played 18 hours of Nintendo (remember that feeling?), but the result was fantastic. over 100 people attended the opening night-and so many drawings were snapped up. (I got mine!)

It was also so wondeful to see my old friend/colleague Takashi Iwasaki. If you don't know of him, you MUST MUST MUST check out his website, or even better go see one of his shows in person. I dream of owning one of his embroideries.

Thank you to everyone who came and supported Ravi, the Semai Gallery and myself!

drawings by Ravi Shukla aka Bill Beso

Curated by Lisa Kehler Sims
Opening Reception: August 5, 2010 7pm-10pm show
running until August 31, 2010 at the Semai Gallery 264 McDermot Avenue.

Oh how delighted I am to be working with such a talent. His drawings seem effortless; enigmatic; ethereal. The gallery is a treat too: Semai translates to narrow in Japanese: the gallery space is a hallway nested within another gallery's walls. I couldn't imagine a more perfect venue to exhibit a body of work so steeped in exploration of spaces...Once I have completed my curatorial statement/essay I will post it here.

The show will be available for viewing online once it opens. Visit Semai Gallery website here.

Love.

I heard your name and knew. I saw through panes of glass. You saw me in a window. Now here we are, years later. You are mine, and oh my dear, I am yours.
