not your usual mid life crisis blog although I am starting it having walked out of my career as a medical scientist with the intention to develop my creativity to enter the World of Wearable Arts with a dress made out of recycled paper clips crocheted together with the dried spit of a thousand Kererus. But first I need to undergo life preserving surgery to fix a bulging carotid. Where's Iron Man when you need him?
One week at art school and I'm a street art ninja of the night.
Making connections with my community is one of the goals of art school for me. This "yarn bombing" phenomenon is out there go google it up or Instagram it and see a couple of really awesome crochet street artists, London Kaye and Olek. They are inspiring!
St valentines seems as good a day as any to heart bomb the streets of silverstream. I have tried to upload a video but if it's not playing then check it out on my FB post. Note to self - well done on editing 20 mins of dark and drizzly video down to under 2 mins! It's amazing how attached you can become to your art hahahaha! Oh and the constraints of a 3 min max upload limit for FB!
