re: art and lack of sleep.

hello friends, fans, foe, lovers, leavers, sinners and winners...

really enjoying making new art these days, stumbled onto a new genre to challenge my brain, and i love it. now, to make a new kick ass film. it's kind of funny, the stuff i was doing two years ago is finally catching on, the apology films, the residential school apology series of images, and the films i made in the last five years are still holding up quite well. i will repost them.

recently had an interesting revelation. people do not like to let you change. if you change and grow as a human being, people you knew previously will still only know you from the last time they saw you. they get weird and it's awkward trying to relate back to their world.

basically, i spend roughly 6 months of the year on the road. as well, i'm working and developing an aboriginal arts organization here in the interior of b.c. trying to get something happening. we do workshops in art, film, organized a music festival 2 years in a row, and we had 2 exhibitions last year as well we're working on a residency program. i've got pre-art friends and post-art friends and trying to cohabit in those worlds is very strange indeed.

i don't see my pre-art friends very often because they do their thing and are busy, and i am as well. my post-art friends or, artist friends are all roughly in the same level of so-called success, so we can hang out a bit more and develop projects, or ideas and such. it's interesting to watch when the two worlds collide. haha.

life is strange, awkward and funny, well, i hope life is good for you, all the best,


CB.
