home sweet...

oh my awesome, work by artist Kay Healey.


Love the banality of the objects, the hand me down aesthetic of the furniture.


I obviously love the fabric works and they gets me super excited...


but the juxtaposition of the graffiti with the "home" object is also so interesting.


From her statement:

"Through my art I investigate themes of transience and the search for stability in an ever-changing world. I am by nature a nostalgic person and am very interested in how an object as mundane as a plastic salad spinner can embody vivid memories of people, events, and periods of someone’s life."

show prep...

a mock up of a small interior install of this work.

Today, I have been trying to gather together the work for my solo show in brooklyn, home sweet home, that opens on my due date.
Crazy indeed.
But since it is so close to my due date, I will not be able to install the work, so I am gathering and preparing everything, making install instructions, ordering prints, and trying to get a dvd together in vain.
But today I got all the physical work gathered and ironed. Wooh!
Now my main thing is to figure out how to get my dvd done. I have not worked with my video camera in a few years and essentially have completely forgotten how to do everything. But I will figure it out hopefully. Who knows maybe I will get inspired to make video work again?

Yesterday, I was busy at home sanding and painting our wall that partitions the babe's room. It looks great!
