kay khan, such a hero….CLEARLY, i can not get enough.

i copy/pasted her statement, because i could not have articulated her aesthetic any better:
“
My work is a mosaic of fragments, collected experiences, information, and images. This mosaic is both ideological and visual. I like to begin with an idea that I allow to develop unhindered to encompass anything from the serious to the absurd. No thought is isolated and the simplest can build upon itself. Layers of connected thoughts revealed in a succession of images link and multiply in evolving variations. In my recent work, for example, I sometimes begin with just a word, but already this word comes with many meanings and connotations. Then I make a connection, a thin bridge, between each word and its images, and other perhaps abstract and veiled yet related ideas. My artworks are often labyrinths of intricate wordplay. I want the words to be read as fleeting and visual impressions that interact with the other stitched images. The figures in my work in combination with the words form a running commentary.
In the Armor and Facade series, I want to “armor” modern society. These artworks are about how we protect and present ourselves. I begin with simple ordinary ready-made garments that I deconstruct; armor with quilting, imagery, and text; and then rebuild. Garments have their mundane yet necessary purpose to protect us from the elements. But they are obviously more than that in every society. They are our “decoration”; they express and reflect who we are as individuals and as a culture.

DALEK + ONONO = SALT + PEPPER
james marshall better known as dalek, + onono (the newly born fashion brand (2009)) headed by ademar ferrera) are responsible for the magnificent pieces above. They complement each other, maybe they should do a collaboration…I think they should, especially since onono favors doing collaborations with a Ton of people; his previous collection involved 7 other artistically-inclined folks (two of whom pioneer the contemporary dance group desaba). It says so Here. soooooooo what do you think? Yes, no? let your fingers do the talking down below…anyways, I surfed up on james marshall, found his site, spent about 30mins soaking up all his artwork, checked out his bio, and this is what i found: he’s a tattooed skateboarder from a military family, hit a milestone when he worked for takashi murakami (for painting), settled on a minimalist+flat style w/ which he developed his famed SPACE MONKEY, his masterpieces glorify ‘a profusion + hyper-abundance of color + planes of space’ + lastly he describes the push/pull forces of contemporary life as ‘an ever-expanding, contracting, barely breathing universe, contemplating suffocation while simultaneously hover[s] over the consequences of not exploring further the options that no longer l[ie] waiting in the back of the coatroom.’ I consider his perception brighter than sunshine.
And it will be so, for the next twenty years.
