Displacement comes in many forms

Art is not your therapist.

When you share space and time and memory.

What do readiness and anticipation sound like?

Not rehearsing for, not preparing for. Just vibrating towards: ELECTRIC BODIES.

Yes but i want them to be much angrier at each other than ever!

‘SALUT’ - 2025

A cappuccino after midday is a crime. I have just committed a takeaway crime.

Loving it

It was an ugly movie. She is the new Campbell not O’Brien. Raimi’s take on the horror genre has become tediously camp. Nope 👎

How do u feel about another woman losing a Disney CEO position to a man?

PROUD is not a word I ever use to describe myself, but it’s a tempting one when META permanently suspends all my accounts at once for no reasons and I am still around talking shit about them.

We must own our mistakes.

None because this is the worst show ever imaginable.

In between facial hair, in between places, in between state of minds.

Another name has been placed.
The list keeps growing.

Just wrapped up a visit to the incredible City Art Depot to see three of my works in Showcase 2025! 🎨
Perfect way to close out the year’s exhibitions. I’m so grateful to the team at City Art Depot – their curatorial vision and meticulous care in handling the work really shows.

I don’t get into fight mode :)

How many fights you count daily?

Throw back to some cute behind the scenes shots of ‘IMMIGRANTS WELCOME’, performed at the Performance Arcade a long ago.

Admiration for keeping it decent on this platform!!!! 🙌 🦄
