My show is coming up and it just hit me that I don't have anything cool to wear. I usually don't care about clothing but because it's the opening and there'll be people that potentially want to meet with me I have got to present myself properly. I was thinking of different outfits but I can't think of any outfits that would go well with this event. I know people in Oakland usually dress very grunge and punk

like and my art has a little bit of that taste. But how can I translate it to an outfit? I went to San Jose to find answers and came up with a couple of solutions. I think I might do the vest thing you know? Like a dress shirt and a vest with some jeans cool belt and shoes. This style is getting overdone though so I have to find a really weird vest that would break the cycle. Another idea I had was to find patterned everything. Blazer, dress shirt, pants, with solid black socks and patterned shoes and black gloves. When I talk about patterned I mean super patterned almost to the point of being tacky but still having it balance somehow. The idea is to have me look like a big piece of fabric walking around. the last thing I thought of was to wear something weirdly simple and modern as a way of asserting myself in the art world but having this hidden idea that I already passed modernity with my hair style. It's confusing but trust me it would work. I found nothing of the sort at the mall and everything was super expensive. We'll see what actually happens to my outfit at the day of the opening now won't we? ;)
Another problem the show has sprung up for me is redesigning the space. I really like the black floor but I think it is my duty as an artist and philanthropist to spread my essence on the window and the back- ugly- wall. We also need to find a DJ if anyone wants a gig this is the perfect time to send in a sample to me via email ;)
