NIPPLE
NIPPLE, a new series since last year! This series simply bring to show the beauty of the women body in 8-bit, pixelated, and like computer-language style. I created this series by mixing two ideas that I was considering for a last few years. The first one is to make something erotic because the famous Murakami teaches the younger artists should have artworks contain the themes like Love, Life and Death, Sex, all those kinds of humankind things that I haven't had. The another idea is very simple, I just wanted to make something with only bitmaps and put the two ideas together.

Vanilla Bubbles for Citydrift
Vanilla Bubbles:
Vanilla smelled bubbles are wafting with my desire and hope that Bushwick will be a place where people will gather. A lot of dessert, flower, and fragrance shops might open around this area in the near future. Do you smell vanilla around here today? Does anyone know a new ice cream shop opened recently?

Bonsai Fine Arts!
Last Friday, professional art shippers were coming from Bonsai Fine Arts and packing my stuff as very very well for the art fair on this March!
I just thought the 2 guys were like a young packing skywalker and his master. They have nice force for art :-) The time to see their work is really useful for my future. Now I know where I can get the cheap packing stuff. Yey!

Maurizio Cattelan: All
Saw a show "Maurizio Cattelan: All" a few days ago at Guggenheim Museum.
It's a best brilliant solo show ever!
I actually don't like kind of art that to understand hard for people don't have some knowledge for art history. But his are different because a lot of kids are coming and very very exciting about it :-) I know of course his art has a tough concept and long history. I hope I could make kids very exciting with my own stuff one day.
