I have a moment. Finally.

It's been so long since the last post--but honestly there was little-to-no time to be had for blogging and the such. Since I've last checked in the following has occurred:

A. I worked the crap out of my portfolio and produced some work I'm totally proud of.

B. Worried, worried, and worried some more about portfolio review.

C. Passed that. (and realized the panic was completely unnecessary)

D. Took a deep breath and grabbed a good night of sleep.

Started up a twitter account--i'd love for you to follow me: TTCPPhotography

Now it's time for job-hunting and summer reading!

Congratulations to all of my classmates for doing a kick-butt job on their reviews and working full force for the past two years! Catch up on some much-needed relaxation and I will see you all on the 11th!

Daily Double: Must-Reads

Reading improves human life on all levels of the playing field. Our words become more concise and we are able to improve our communication the more we dive into books. As artists, the intention of our work is to verbalize our thoughts, statements and emotions. This said, the more we are able to communicate orally the easier it will be for us to communicate visually.

These past couple weeks I have noticed that my verbal communication has been near-neanderthal. Besides the overwhelming amount of stress and pre-portfolio jitters, I am accrediting this to my book-less lifestyle. I have not picked up a book to read in a few months and, with the last two weeks here and happening, I have decided it is time to start anew and curl up with a good read.

The Modern Library has an awesome online list to (what they consider) the 100 Best Novels (of what, I have no clue. Time? Perhaps...) They also compare their list with the Reader's List (again, I know, what readers? But still...) Check it out, you might find something you like.

p.s. If anyone out there has any suggestions, I'm all ears..

These guys didn't make it anywhere so I figured I would give them a little lovin blogstyle.

The Cremaster Cycle in Cambridge!

THIS JUST IN:

Starting June 25th for only ONE week at Kendall Square Cinema in Cambridge, MA [landmarktheatres.com] Matthew Barney's, The Cremaster Cycle, will be playing! Each day of that week the theatre will show the enter series of his work, beginning at 1:00pm. and ending with the last showing at 9pm. Each day's order will differ, so it will be super convenient to work with your schedule. Also note: his work is not available anywhere for sale, so this is a limited and AWESOME opportunity.

i'm tickled pink.

New Work:

Bread Blog.

Bread. We love it. We eat it. We make art with it?

Check this out--a guy named David Reimondo is making large ceramic-tile-like works of art made entirely of toast. Resin-coated toast that is.

How about this guy called Kittiwat Unarrom--who makes bread look like frightening and disgusting bloody faces and feet and torsos and gross body parts.
