Changarrito! Maximo Gonzalez "Playful" Exhibition

I am a part of this exhibition, "playful" by Maximo Gonzalez at Craft Folk art Museum, Opening reception tomorrow, Jan 28th, Sat at 6 - 9pm. During the reception, me and two other artists will be showing and selling our work at a cart right outside of the museum.
and, I will be showing my work again at the same location between feb 7, Tue and 12, Sun, 12 - 3pm.

We just had a press lease preview yesterday with the cart outside, and it went great! Can't wait for Saturday's opening :)

FYI since there is no commission with the gallery for selling works, the price will be really good deal...
If you're free or are in the area, please come by and say hi :)

Art in the Parking Space by Pacific Standard TIme

This is such a last minute notice... but I will be performing in this event called, Art in the Parking Space by Pacific Standard Time, tonight (Jan 24th), 7-9pm at Standard Hotel on Sunset Blvd!
There will be ten performing groups, and our group is one of them. We'll be performing with some Sculptural objects, created by the artist, Krysten Cunningham. That's all I can say for now :)

I think this is gonna be an experimental, unpredictable, and exciting event to watch...
Hope I will see you all there!

Ho Ho Ho!

Happy Holidays!

Season Greetings and Best Wishes for the New Year!!!

How I have been...

Regardless of my excuses, it's been such a looong time since the last post...
Anyways, I've been doing well :)

This past summer, I performed Thai Dance for several shows for Lan Sattha Company, and also had a art exhibition which was curated by Create : Fixate.
