Lauren's Instillation

Last night I helped Lauren out with her instillation at the Tin Roof for a calender release/music show. I had been gathering cardboard boxes from work to give to her for this project, and I'd say the storing up was well worth it. The structures all ended up suiting the space really well, and though it was a new time frame and materials for Lauren, the work still looks very much like her own. It was a long day, and we busted our butts to get it done; but at the end of the day, we got the sadisfaction of completion, a pint of free beer, great food, good music, and instantainious sleep as soon as our heads it our pillows. To artmaking!

Check out the artists from last night: Here and Here.

I helped to install the work for the Redux 8th Annual Art Auction today at The Charleston Center For Photography. There was a lot of work, and it took nearly all day, but in the end it all looked well. It felt good to be hanging and doing gallery work again. I'm sure it will be a good turn out, and I hope they raise all the money they need to keep their budget for the year. It's a really nice gallery, and they have good shows as well; it's a good place to have around.

Still working on the drawing project, if anyone is following it, and working most of the time on my real job (which is not art unfortunately, but it makes some money). I'm just starting to get settled in at my new places, and collecting furniture and such, making it lived in, and will be painting the walls soon. But, thats not art either, though at least it's painting.
