Hello Family & Friends,

I have been working around the clock for my SUMMERWINTER exhibition which opens in LA on Friday, July 16th. Everything is coming together beautifully, and I can’t wait to show you all what I have created!

Kirk has been working on a beautiful short film that narrates the story of the art show, and it’s set to a soundtrack composed by Loren Humphrey.

I would also like to thank all the amazing people who have helped in preparation for this exhibition:

Jeremy Mora for his beautiful gallery; POVevolving, Todd Rogers for sound engineering, Matt Tammariello for sound effects, Loren Humphrey for the soundtrack, Luis Ramirez for printing help, Honest Tea and PBR for the drinks, Nylon TV for the coverage, and a very special thank you to Element for all your love and support!

Our goal is to raise $500 for Elemental Awareness, which is an organization that reaches out to under-privileged kids through skateboarding and wilderness skills. I created a limited edition of 10 hand-sewn, hand-screened totes that are packed with goodies from our sponsors, and will be sold to raise money for EA.

Inside each tote is an AB zine from the exhibition, an organic Element T-shirt, and an Element Eden wallet, along with stickers, Honest Tea drinks, and a copy of Nylon… So the first ten people to donate $50 will recieve one of these limited edition, hand made, gift bags.

I will also be launching a special line of ombré dyed scarves, which are grade 50, 100% Cheese cloth that will thread the exhibition together by combining black and white, to make grey.

New ‘zines are hot of the press, and will also be available! (If you’re a self-publisher & zine fan, bring yours to the show and we’ll swap!)

Lastly, check out this interview by fellow Mumbler, Isaac McKay-Randozzi at Juxtapoz!

Thank you, and I hope to see you there!

GET A GRIP 2 is the second annual artshow put on by Krudco. skateboard shop and RocCityPark.org. It will be August 6th at The Four Walls Gallery at 34 Elton St. Rochester, ny and will last 5pm-10pm.

Over 40 artists have contributed artwork made on or with griptape and more! A lot of these artists have shown with 1975 over the last two years and their work last year was a lot of fun! Prices start at $25.00, and proceeds go towards building a world class skatepark in downtown Rochester, NY.

In the coming weeks I’m going to post up an interview with the folks helping push the RCP project here in Rochester.

We’ve just launched the online art shop for the latest Contributor show titled “One way or Another” If you haven’t heard about it, the simple story is that we’ve asked 50 amazing artists to donate their time to create unique skateboards for you! Instead of a traditional artshow in which only one article is available for purchase, artists have been asked to donate their time and skills to make up to ten pieces of art! They are available first come first serve, More about the show here www.wearecontributors.com (or click on the image)

I am having an exhibition on July 16th at the POVevolving Gallery in LA entitled SUMMERWINTER.

I began thinking about the  SUMMERWINTER concept about a year ago. It was a natural seasonal progression after my Autumn inspired show at colette in Paris. I wanted to convey the way that seasons are different in the Northern and Southern hemispheres, and how opposites attract… That feeling that one could not exist without the other, and that things all become one in the end.

For this show, I took a minimalist approach in my work, which was inspired by my husband. I have always been about color, but in this show I kept the pallet strictly to black, white and grey. I also experimented with other textiles and media for this show… Along with my sewn creatures, I created a limited edition Ombré dyed scarf to symbolize black and white becoming one (grey). My husband and I also created a short film that will be shown at the exhibition.

The entire show centers around a single love story between the characters Summer andWinter, who fall in love. Even though they live on opposite sides of the world, they consummate their love, and perform a seasonal dance of love for eternity.

1975 will be opening a show with some of my good friends at TATTOO KAMIKAZE this Friday in Rochester, NY.

We spent today setting the show up and we’re all pretty happy with how it came together. Come on out if you are in the area!
