Sup dollface.


 Hey folks.
So I find blog writing tedious and time-consuming, esp. given the alternatives (twitter, instagram, etc...) are much more instantaneous and image-friendly. The latter social networking outlets cater to me and likeminded attention spans...

But I do enjoy the occasional juicy bloggy, all crammed with images and awkward text. So, without further ado. Here is a thing I made:



"Where bunnies come from"
Nomi Chi 2012.
Ceramic, acrylic, casting resin, sculpey.

A while ago, I was contacted by Stuntkid to participate in a group show at the Virginia MoCa. It was pretty open-ended, the only stipulation was that we must somehow factor a campbell's soup can into our works - a nod to the influence of Andy Warhol ;)

The show is on now, and will be for a while. You can see (and PURCHASE!) all the artists' work HERE.

The process was kind of ridiculous and I lost a lot of hair over this project. I'm super proud of her, though.   Process shots and rambling after the cut!
P.S. these images will be old news for those who follow me on instagram.
P.P.S. FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM.

Hey folks! Here's some new pieces I contributed to Kristian Adam's show. (he's a cool feller - check out his stuff here http://www.kristianadam.com/)

I feel like this blog has seen its share of empty promises, but I *am* trying to stay on top of things. At the moment, I spend so much time producing (though not always being productive) I barely have time to document my work, and rarely have the time to share said documentation.

I am getting quite burnt out at this point, I'm not sure how exactly I survived this month. Participated in 4 art shows, did well on midterms, didn't get fired from my job due to neglecting my tattoo clients. A well deserved pat on the back from me to me. I keep saying that I need to take a break from shows and over-booking artistic obligations but it doesn't seem to work that way.

Ah well. Back to the drawing board.
