wear your horns out now

that last post was a little rushed, i was just super-eager to share what i've been up too. being back in the city, back in the studio, i'm infinitely more of a person; an enhanced, happier version of myself. pounding pavement and smelling pollution has never been more satisfying.
so this print goes along with the 'heavy hangs the head...' print, a diptych. these little guys have been filling my brain as not just standing for our physicality with one another but our collective conscious; holding their own while still representing the whole. that feeling
of being the only one in any given situation or emotional state, but the knowledge that we are all interconnected in our same innate flaws; two of which being pride (re: crown) and, respective to this print, deviance.

i think i said a little too much already; it's late and i haven't really allowed myself to wrap my own head around where i'm at. i've just kind of been doing whatever i feel like and following through with passions and ambitions without having to think too hard. very fluid, undulating, calm.

speaking of which, saw animal collective at the guggenheim: INCREDIBLE. womb-like, repetitive hypnosis. the complete opposite of their film ODDSAC, also with Danny Perez that i saw with geoff at SVA 2 days earlier. if Traverse Temporal Gyrus was a lucid dream, ODDSAC was an epileptic nightmare of anxiety; flashing vague ideas of fear and loss, lacking a real plot line and resolving itself only in it's silence after an almost entirety of high pitch and horror. we sat there jaw dropped. meeting them afterward, my heart was beating out of my chest.
