Bright and Thready
In Leeds, there are empty warehouses, and
in these empty warehouses, there are parties. They are long and loud,
and just as visually interesting as they are anything (and everything)
else. Sometimes, the lighting at big parties is incredibly complex. But
at one of the warehouses we went to, the visual consisted of nothing
more than wool and UV light.
Jeongmoon Choi seems to
have appreciated the magnificent effect that such a simple concept can
produce. The Berlin-based South Korean artist creates neon landscapes
and interiors using illuminated thread, turning ordinary spaces into
stripped-back, glowing structures.
This kind of investigation into space visually (and in some ways, theoretically) reminds me of Yayoi Kusama's Infinite Room that I was so caught up with a few months ago.
This work really does it for me - it's loads of fun, and it is clever.

D I S C O U R S E
I've started a new collaborative project with my best buddy Rosa.
We happen to have really similar interests, and almost every conversation we have ends up being about something 'art-related'. We thought it was about time to start documenting all the inspiring things we're respectively learning about at uni, so we've set up a conversational blog.
I'm really looking forward to getting started, especially since we often work together on interesting projects that we now have an appropriate platform to present.
We just set it up this evening. Enjoy!
Imaginative Editorials
I don't really understand why more editorials don't mix their images up like the following:
Numero Feb 2013 from here
They're really beautiful images.
