Well- it’s official... Spice Creative inc. officially launched March 17, 2010– St. Patrick’s Day! It was one of my goals to complete that prior to my upcoming birthday, and I’m happy to have achieved it!
Today I decided to walk to the Art Gallery to see an exhibit presented by six Japanese artists whose work is united by a common theme: Exploring issues of personal and cultural identity in today’s evolving global world.
Each artist used different methods and materials to showcase their piece. One had a video animation with erie music, and captivating, though simplistic animation. This was presented in a private area with a semi-circle white wall acting as a projection screen, and the projector rotated from left to right as the images moved across the wall. It was really cool.
Another artist ordered a number of items from eBay and then made them “pixelated” again by surrounding them with glass marbles to blur the image cased inside as though it were pixelated.
One of the most striking images, featured in the banner of this post, is one called Geisha 2002 by Miwa Yanagi. Beside the image, was a list of instruction, reflecting a Geisha code of conduct. I found some of them rather appropriate!
Speaking of which, I’m turning 25 again tomorrow!! In fact, I’ve got to wrap this up now, as I’m heading to celebrate with some friends. Thanks to those of you that are following my blog! Keep it real– CJ

- One must devote oneself to accomplishments in art
- One must respect the tastefully refined
- One must never discriminate between chance customers,
and regular customers - To entertain a customer one must treasure every meeting,
for it will never recur. - One must decide ones age on a daily basis (my personal fav)
