There’s something a little timeless about Min Jeong Seo’s work - like a moment that is just plucked from the air. She plays with classic imagery - for example, high heels or the Statue of Liberty - and gives them a modern, updated twist. In this example, To Live On, the stems of the roses are actually dead, but the blooms continue to thrive. There’s a commentary in there about life and death, and the advances of medical science.

hundreds of computers are programmed to generate an inexhaustible flux of random images which nobody would see
this, on the other hand, is a similar idea, and is one of my favorite conceptual installation pieces ever
it’s just
wow

Opens Tonight, Fri Jan 6, 6-9p:
Dawn Clements
”New Work”
Pierogi Gallery, 177 North 9th St., Brooklyn, NY
Clements’ powerful use of Sumi ink and ballpoint pen on small to large-scale paper panels remains her primary medium and scale. She often cuts and pastes the paper together to edit and compose a completed drawing, adding paper as necessary to create the desired scale. Through her active process, which is almost performative, the paper becomes distressed with folds, wrinkles, and seams.
“Through sight, sound and touch my work is always a response to environments, objects and people, but until fairly recently the responses have been largely limited to working within the confines of my living spaces in fairly solitary ways.” (Clements, 2012)

Truly unique and one-of-a-kind peter pan collar necklace featuring vivid color print on genuine leather. One side in purply blue, and the other with pink and mustard print. It has the magic to give life to a plain top or nautical dress! (via AmprisLoves)
I hung out with him on a really good night when I was in Chicago last year.
