I’ve always loved observing lava lamps. The way the two liquids form strange figurs somehow calms me. I get the same effect from looking at Alberto Seveso’s photography series, Sequence Verdastra. He’s poured coloured varnishes into a fish bowl and captured the impact of the two fluids with a high speed camera. The result: very trippy! Read more

WE'RE THINKING

I am interested in man as a phenomenon. And observing and documenting its object in a vacuum. I am especially interested in the tracks man puts on other people in the world around them. I collect these tracks together and keep them in my paintings. Read more

How many times can we play the same song in different settings? Hmmm, I don’t know. But it is a hell of a song, from a hell of a band, as that uniquely English oddity, Jules Holland would no doubt concur.

WE'RE TRAVELLING TO

Located on West Houston, Alphaville is my favorite gift store in Manhattan. It offers a great selection of vintage objects, from Nixon’s campaign buttons, to Sesame Street 80s mobiles, 50s greeting cards and the original Mr. Potato Head and his friends. It’s one of those places I walk into just to look but always end up buying something.

WE'RE LISTENING TO

I love Brooklyn band Durty Nanas. They were formed in 2005 and play street spaces, galleries, lofts, and block parties. So I guess they are the ‘real’ Bloc party.

WE'RE WEARING

Chuck Wepner, Clara Rockmore, Abe Lincoln. These peeps and more are worthy of a t-shirt. Pretty Patti also sells modern postcards of vintage family members.
