So for the past few months I’ve been headed in a slightly different direction. After doing the lighting for Propolis with the help of some very talented friends I realized that I wanted to learn more about electronics. So while I’ve been fixing up Propolis’ lights (soldering, cleaning, organizing, etc.), I’ve also been teaching myself about electronics. Still a lot to learn, but it has been a lot of fun and will likely lead to lots of fun projects in the future.

Though I can never seem to get too far from metal work. I’ve got a new class coming up at Pratt, Sculpture in Motion, led by a friend of mind. Super excited to incorporate more interactivity into my art. I was also awarded an Alley Art Project Internship through Pratt. Over the next couple of months I get to work with a group of upcoming and established artists on a public art project down in Pioneer Square, Seattle. The grant money comes from Alley Art and the project is lead by an artist I greatly admire, Patrick Mahar. We meet this Friday for the first time and I’m excited to see the space as well as learn more about the project.
