IT IS DONE

After a few days of making Tommy wear my plastic cup creation, and swearing at iMovie, it is finally complete. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you my latest short film: LOST IN MY CUPS.




Now I can fully concentrate on the stencils and finishing this bastard essay on transgenderism... Have a feeling that meeting these deadlines is going to be tighter than a nun's ladygarden. Wish me luck.

STICKY NOTE MADNESS AND STENCILS GALORE

The latest chapter in my quest to make people take things less seriously.


The last couple days I've been wandering around with a pad of sticky-notes, writing my thoughts down and leaving them behind... and my head is full of random bullshit. So in a way, this is the ultimate act of sharing. It could also be a kind of passive-aggressive vandalism.






Some other quick updates; my short film Lost in My Cups is almost complete - All that remains is to add some appropriate music, and it shall be ready to view. Will post it up here when its done :)
Also, I've been working on some other stencils that shall be appearing soon...



This one is a reworked version of one I posted before, when I was researching Frank Miller. 
Gonna make this one fucking huge.

I got the idea for this last night whilst re-reading my Banksy book.
Might look quite good as a custom t-shirt. 

Keep your eyes peeled around the studios; don't think I'm quite finished with the sticky notes.

LOST IN MY CUPS

One thing I've been mucking about with recently is this sphere made of plastic cups, all stapled together. I made it out of sheer boredom, but its surprising how much fun it's been producing work with it. I also didn't expect it to be so multi-purpose.


For example....


It could be used as a pretty awesome room light




It can be used to make serious statues a whole lot less serious...





Also, in talks with one of my fellow art students about making a short film with it, entitled Lost in My Cups.


I'm actually kind of enjoying how usurping an object, and making it something that was never meant to be anything, can be put to several different fine arty uses. 

It's a funny old world, eh?

BERLIN POLAROIDS

Since these are the only pics I've got around to editing from Berlin, figured I'd post them up.






Still in the process of sorting through the rest of the shots, I have uploaded some unedited ones to my Facebook page however. Will post them up when they're done :)
