This Friday July 17th at 7pm is the opening reception for an art show I have been working on for almost the past two years – The Modern Dunce Series
Collaborating with Yanique Norman has been – - difficult on the one hand because I’ve never worked so closely with someone creatively — and eye opening on the other. I’ve gone from being one of those anonymous faces on the street who have no knowledge of the art world and how it functions — to being thrown in the middle of a thriving cities art scene.
It’s all very strange – sometimes beautiful and thought provoking – somethings stupid and a waste of time. I’m still figuring out how I feel about it all, as in – whether or not I would like to continue something in this art world – but at least now I’ve had the experience of toiling with the “work” and figuring out how to get it on the wall.
At this point I will never judge too harshly another artists work because I know personally how difficult it was for that person to just get something on the wall.
Anyway – it’s been a long two years and the show is finally here. – The Modern Dunce Series at Sandler Hudson Gallery in Atlanta (www.SandlerHudson.com)
