12 x 5 4 x 3 8 cm didn t think much of any particular history while making this spoon as it just so happened that i found the text torn in half among my paper scraps the meaning of the word as his story struck me isn t that the truth recently i came across some beautiful photographs of traditional clothing and textiles on pinterest which somehow led to some disturbing images of chinese bound feet and half naked mutilated eunuchs i know they existed but didn t know the bound feet have been around for more than a thousand freakin years and the eunuchs twice as long both were not banished until the 20th century how could it take so long for something so wrong to stop happening from the last eunuch i can almost understand but the ugly painful bound feet not really john said i am not understanding how deeply rooted the kind of thinking was at the time maybe i would do it too given the circumstances those bound feet actually were never given a choice since their mothers guardians started binding them as early as 3 or 4 years old to stop them from growing so a grown woman with the size of a three year old feet was ideal beauty at the time how could that be ok for a time span of a millennium that s like 30 generations of billions and billions of women not being able to run freely for life is it not much different now what things will future generations look at us and be

that i had forgotten about boyshorts fabric thread on paper 3 7 x 5 5 cm sunshine fabric thread on paper 5 x 6 5 cm hot hot plastic thread on paper 6 5 x 10 cm there is a lot of fumbling around in the studio as i try to pick up where i had left off it s like trying to piece together different selves from before and now and the edges are not quite fitting these underwear pieces are like little sketches circling around the theme of being a woman a girl something innocent possibly sexy naughty taboo ish i think i can jump right in only thing is it feels like such an incredible indulgence to be sitting around making these things when there is so much wrong going on in the world posted by mien at 19 08 2 comments categories paper sketches string textiles undies works in progress works 2009

you are so right and wise that i just need to start in the middle i had an awesome post written up in my head awhile ago but for the life of me i can t remember any of it so i am starting back again somewhere else for real now sad that i don t have any new artwork to share my basement studio looks so forlorn and dusty i can t believe i haven t completed any art for over a year what kind of artist does that make me if even one at all but my life has felt fuller and more meaningful since having this little one jaksen almost 3 months taken in june last year thank you aunt kazu for this awesome onesie he is walking and throwing tantrums now but still super goofy and super cute people are amazed surprised such a beautiful being came from john and me what the heck but i ll take it 1 year old taken this past june this kid likes to play ping pong and say duck and fish i m still waiting to hear someone call me mommy so like this post my life is all baby baby now we have started doing chores together like washing dishes and sweeping the floor hopefully soon he ll help me clean up my studio and we can make art together posted by mien at 00 38 18 comments categories baby remember this email

those who are still checking up on me you guys are plain awesome sometimes i wish i had started this blog anonymously so i can feel more free to share whatever is on my mind there is something i ve been wanting the whole world to know but waiting for it to feel more real and to be showing more i m going to have a baby you guys and so is my sister we are due within a week from one another what are the chances of that our babies will be like twin cousins double joy yeah one of the happiest moments of my life when i found out the first three months have passed by sooo slowly aside from making it to work during the day i was pretty much useless the rest of time just ate and laid around like a lazy princess occasionally yelling at john for something or another heh poor guy that s what guys get for not being the one to get pregnant i don t know how my mom managed to go through all three times with us when she was throwing up constantly she couldn t even drink water without puking man i only threw up once every week or two and that was bad enough for me to think i am definitely not going through this again oh but then my stomach got hard the nausea went away and i m feeling this crazy little lump protruding at the lower ab out of nowhere beginning of second trimester it was such a creepy feeling like some alien thing inside me doctor said it was baby s leg or foot it s strange but i found myself falling in love with that leg thing and now the days and weeks are going by way too fast i can barely believe that it s only 3 more months to go i m so annoyed i didn t get a chance to take a picture of my belly a few weeks ago when it was like a little watermelon now it is a lot rounder and not as cute anymore back in college one of the themes i was kind of obsessed in exploring was the pregnant body made some prints and sculptures of it but now that i m actually in this body i have barely documented anything of it hopefully in the next couple of months i ll have
