To my friends, artists, non-artists, muses, etc…
I’m co-hosting and co-directing a photo/video shoot this saturday with Monica Watkins for her media company Art in Motion.
The location is at a dope studio called ThirdEyeSolation in Bushwick. It’s an art collective fundraising campaign featuring live music, live art, & live performances from every platform to benefit Japanese disaster relief efforts. This project was inspired by 19 year old jewelry and accessory designer LaDria LaVae who’s already got Kanye West sporting her pieces. See flyer or check out her website: http://www.atomagalactic.com/
Basically it’s going to be a crazy party and photo shoot that goes all day from 4 pm to 1 am. We’re gonna have a PA, mics, amps/guitars, drum kit, african drums, karaoke, projections, open canvas for painters and graffiti artists, food and amazing young talent that Monica’s worked with and whom she wants to promote.
Here’s a clip on “We ♥ Japan” for your viewing pleasure: http://vimeo.com/21389742
And here’s some behind the scenes from a recent shoot : http://www.youtube.com/user/monicawatkins#p/u/11/Z7dTyM9iem4
RSVP if you want some free promo for your art or if you want to lend your beautiful image to this campaign… This is about art, community, and charity.
3rdEyeSolution is at 1501 Broadway (right off the Halsey stop on the J train – 5 blocks into brooklyn)
Respect,
