Kite Flight :: Plastic Play
Sunday, April 27, 2008 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM
Hi all Miwa and I have been invited to participate in the annual kite making day at Socrates. We'll be showing everyone how to make the shopping bag kites. The goal is to get as many shopping bags into the sky as possible to come on down!
From the Press Release:
Long Island City, NY (March 10, 2008) : Socrates Sculpture Park and The Noguchi Museum are proud to present the sixth annual kite making workshop and flying event. This free hands-on workshop will take place at Socrates Sculpture Park and welcomes children of all ages to participate. This year, children and their families will find an excellent new use for plastic bags by transforming this durable, and light weight material into beautiful recycled kites! Kite designs are provided by artists Miwa Koizumi and Marco Scoffier who will draw inspiration from the Park's fantastic view of the Manhattan skyline. Participants will have the opportunity to build and decorate their kites, then fly them in the Park. (more)

Almost Something :: empty and full
Sept. 17th - Oct. 22nd 2005
Almost Something is an art show, which
includes concerts and movie nights. It is easy to get lost
in the imaginations of more than 20 artists including
musicians, writers, film-makers and fakes. Critics have
created 4 separate guide books with maps and an audio tour.
These are your tools, they are all unreliable, sniffing out
the fakes is up to you.
What the critics are saying about Almost Something:
Melting Pot: The work of nearly 20 artists has been melted into the fabric of the gallery space to the point where the gallery feels completely empty. Once the news was life becoming Art, today with Almost Something Art once again becomes life.
'Which tour guide would you prefer?', asks the art-hotty at the counter. "tour guide?" "prefer?" I am intrigued. Multiple tour guides have been written to lead me through very different versions of the same show. On closer inspection it seems that some projects appear in every guide, some in just a few, some in none at all. What is the Art? What am I really meant to see. I guess in the end I have to come up with the solution myself.
A la carte: Appearances aren't to be trusted and Almost Something is never quite what it seems. Offered a variety of perspectives, we, the viewers are asked to piece together the reality of this show to our own liking.
Come check out this show, there are special events every weekend, it is going to be awesome...

stereognost&propriocept :: just a photo
10/07/04 - 10/16/04
I was picked to be in a
group show at the lab
gallery. Even though it is in midtown... it seems to be
a pretty cool place. The gallery is really small though so
they only picked a photo. The show is about the sense of
touch (stereognosis)
and balance (proprioception).
But the show is only up for a week :(
