If you have ever been in rural North Carolina (or any southern state for that matter) and noticed an unusually, out of place painting on the side of a tractor-trailer? Shack maybe? Or piece of farm equipment? Wipe the dirt from your eyes, and adjust the isomorphic dial that coordinate spatial relations and temporal relations among objects – blink twice. This is Barnstormers. A fleet of New York/Japan-based artists creating large-scale collaborative paintings, films, and performances.  They are a collective of up to thirty artists, each distinct in style, that have solidified their character and paint on the walls of barns in disrepair during their annual trips down to Cameron, NC. Their motion paintings, filmed from a camera secured to the ceiling, use the floor as a large canvas for the layers of their creativity to unfold. Individual incantations, together, invaded, and mutually manifested resulting in an organic shift of material. A  dynamic urban shift, unmeasured, but unmistakably street lethal.

Artist and designer Sasha Tseng has fabricated a device that will literally have you eating your words. Equipped with a message aboard, narcissists everywhere can now indulge in their own ostentatious ramblings in corporeal form composed on toast!  Each overwrought idea, or thought you’ve ever had is seamlessly  toasted into your twelve grain bread or poppy seed bagel. From there it is yours to devour, or your ex-husband/wife who unknowingly just received a slice of toast, along with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice, with the word “DIVORCE” embedded on its delectable surface.

Bottom line, if you’re struggling with what to get me for christmas this year – this jem is it.
