Closing

Just a couple pictures from the abandon ship closing reception. Onto funnel #3 by this time. 

Irrigating

For the last few days I've been making a site-specific installation for the Abandon Ship Exhibition which opened at the Current Gallery in Baltimore last night. I was pretty excited to be part of it. 

I got a studio space at current a couple weeks ago so I would get out of my house and feel inspired to make work. I wanted to find out what was going on in Baltimore and be a part of it. But...the space is being torn down in August so it was kind of funny that I was trying to establish myself there. That's more or less what the piece is about. 

Year End Show - YES!

Graduation, Year End Show. I helped Katie Smith out with some lettering/illustrations for the entrance to the show. Apparently there is a big scientific debate going on discussing a potentially new type of cloud. It looks like waves. Or someone holding up a sheet at either end of the sky and shaking it back and forth. I think Katie's guys are solidly cumulous.

> Two weeks until graduation. Everything is winding down/up...sort of. More just winding today. 

Swines

VC '09! Since swine flu cancelled our first alumni review we decided to protect our future selves. End sheets for our BFA book. 

Art directors, balloons, and typography

On Monday Marc, Mali, Sara and I went up to the Art Director's Club in New York. It was...different than I expected. I loved getting to talk to all the students and some of the reviewers. A lot of the time though I just felt like I was part of a giant flea market. I'm looking forward to the AIGA review tonight in Philly. I think it'll be a lot more personal.

I brought a balloon for the wishfulfillmentmachine.com along with me. After the review I tied it to a bike rack outside. 

After ADC I was kind of bummed out so it was really nice when Marc found that someone had posted my City From Below poster on the blog welovetypography.com
