FIRST.

Here are some pictures from last Friday’s Liminal Show at Kayo Gallery curated by the ever so talented Camilla Taylor, whom by the way has been awarded the SGC Student Fellowship for 2010. Looks like I’ll be seeing her in Philadelphia! There were 37 featured artists, including myself. This was an exchange as well and I will post about them lovelies when I get them at the end of the show, which doesn’t end until April 13th so you have plenty of time to still go (the gallery is open Tuesday-Saturday 12pm-6pm)! Each print is incredibly only $20.

Thanks to my friends and family who came! Especially from Logan! What a trek. It was so good to see some familiar faces.

I wanted a quick and painless picture taken with my prints. I didn’t want to cause any attention, but then the mama wanted one as well. Hah. She gets to because she’s cute. I think she’s excited to see that I am using sign language in my artwork. My cultural background comes from her – the deaf culture and the Vietnamese culture. These two elements have made me different from most people I know and I’ve never explored that in my artwork until now. Well, the deaf culture, not the Vietnamese. But my mother being deaf has made me more who I am than being half Vietnamese. She made the world a more visual place for me and made me appreciate my two hands. I owe her a lot.

    [...] was also gallery stroll night. I have only been in the March Gallery Stroll so it was exciting to be apart of it again with The Holga Show. However, I have to be honest here. [...]
