sunglasses.



going to the empty bottle tomorrow night to see my friend from college's band.
should be interesting seeing as i always went to their shows in people's houses or a local bar back in savannah, not half way across the country in chicago. but it's always a good time as seen below..

SOFA chicago 2010

went downtown yesterday to see the last day of SOFA chicago down at navy pier. ive missed it the past 4 years being down in georgia for school but it was nice to finally check it out.

the sculptor nemo gould had some amazing kinetic robots, this one in particular.

steffen dam's glass works were amazing. these jellies were great and all his works have almost a sense of  victorian cabinets of curiosity to them, which is right up my alley.

always a fan of mixed media pieces, i found mathieu grodet's pieces so wonderful. also i love anything with a good skeleton.

and how could i resist mosaic baby sculptures.. betsy youngquist has quite an imagination.
