Black & White Graphic Insight: Broken & Bionic

Posted on September 28th, 2007 by by Nubby

Broken & Bionic, 2007 Wood, collage, ink, resin 17 x ll inches … I’ve been really into exploring the transformation of the human body lately. The vulnerability. Would we still be vulnerable if were robots? I have a few more pieces planned over the next few months. Also, I have a few group shows in [...]

Fashion Notebook Friday: Part 1

Posted on September 28th, 2007 by by Nubby

Every Friday, I will be posting a new page from my ‘Fashion Notebook.’ For the last 10 years, I have been compiling my favorite cutouts from fashion magazines into colorful collages inside an oversized sketchbook. As the years have passed, more pages are nearing completion and I feel like now is the time to share. [...]

MUJI: Japanese Perfection in Simplicity

Posted on September 26th, 2007 by by Nubby

  I love MUJI. A brand of Japanese basics encompassing over 7,000 items, the brand prides itself on being high quality, simple, and affordable. Best of all, MUJI uses as little packaging as possible. There aren’t layers of packaging hiding the product; instead, you can immediately see what it is (even though the labels are [...]

New York: Central Park and Strawberry Fields

Posted on September 26th, 2007 by by Nubby

  Last week, I visited Central Park for the first time ever and it was even better than I expected. The weather was about 80 degrees and since it was a weekday, the park was pretty empty which was nice considering that is has 25 million visitors annually! The construction of the park was completed [...]

New York: The Swiss Institute

Posted on September 24th, 2007 by by Nubby

The Swiss Institute is a venue featuring art by Swiss artists in New York City. It is located on 495 Broadway (3rd floor) in a Soho loft and is definitely worth a visit. Admission is free and exhibits change about every two months. The space is spare and modern and there are often films playing [...]

Return to Portlandia

Posted on September 24th, 2007 by by Nubby

   I’m back in Portland, severely jetlagged, readjusting, trying to get used to the quiet. I start back to my final year of graphic design classes tomorrow. Also, I’m getting work together for three group shows; it’s going to be a busy next few months. Though I miss NY, it is nice to be back [...]

The Cutest Light Ever: Spöka by IKEA

Posted on September 23rd, 2007 by by Nubby

A few weeks ago, I was walking through the lighting department at IKEA and came across this children’s nightlight called Spöka. I’ll admit, my main reason for purchasing it was for looks, but it’s also quite genius in design. Unplugged, the charge lasts 4-6 hours and the inner diode light, though not replaceable, lasts 50,000 [...]

The Seventh Goodbye

Posted on September 22nd, 2007 by by Nubby

  Today was the start of Oktoberfest and my last morning in New York City, so I joined friends at Zum Schneiders’ German restaurant on Avenue C for lunch and drinks. It was a fitting goodbye, since I just missed all the Oktoberfest festivities in Portland. I’m sitting at JFK waiting for my plane to [...]
