project #10: study for we are the moth kings (pt 2)

"That looks like a path.
Is that the way to reach the top from here?--
Not for this morning, but some other time:
I must be getting back to breakfast now."
(Robert Frost, "The Mountain", line 34-36)

project #7: for dana king, tree hugger

I went to my friend (Denise Belz)'s birthday party last year.
Everyone was dressed up in black dresses and suits- this was on purpose so that the birthday girl could stand out in her awesome birthday dress-- and awesome it was indeed!
But who showed up like a moron wearing a bright white t-shirt? Me. Where was this "all black apparel" memo?... probably on the event invitation... but does anyone ever really read all that stuff? Anyway, Dana gave me something to change into.
She only asked for one thing in return- "Make me a shirt with trees on it."*

And so I did:



personalized t-shirt, for dana king
acrylic, sewn fabric

project #6: video: we are the moth kings (part 1)

video

very rough animated creatures... still much work to be done...


we are the moth kings:

the world is so full of a number of things
i'm sure we should all be as happy as kings
someday
weary of the weather, steering by a star
we've got our youth, i've got the sun
growing out of my heart-
i'm not a afraid of the dark

the moon shines- guides my way throughout the night
the tall pine- he lets us sleep under the vines
it all falls- into place like sand and stone
we all long- for the sweet smell of home


original music, "we are the moth kings", guitar, bells, fabric, paper collage, desk, lamp
