Text of the page (random words):
just walking down the street for a moment as a girl unnoticed and not needing any special attention my decision to become something else is always a decision to become mythopoetic because the reality of the new state is always unknown imaginary a construct a fantasy yet i don t seek to decry this radical state of uncertainty but to embrace it the very moments of everyday perception are also simply intersections of a real materiality with my symbolic and imaginary processing engines making sense of them down to the way that i understand what pleasure is and what pain is and when the two become too close so as to be confused and a choice to not transform is of course still a choice to transform into a different state as our bodies are all in permanent transition aging training consuming producing perceiving creating new folds in our craniums read the rest at augmentology com and leave a comment i d love to know what you think of this writing 07 aug 09 becoming dragon in the 2009 slon

effect on students from these institutions who do not have many opportunities to interact in the greater southern california arts community curator marla koosed explains mfa conversations part ii builds on the foundation established by part iʼs show and artist conversations and will offer another opportunity for dialogue among the artists and their works it will also offer visitors to the gallery an exceptional opportunity to see an edited sample of some of the finest work being produced by southern california mfa graduates while most mfa shows are up for a limited period of time part ii will be up for 2 months this allows time for the scheduled artist talks for the participants to discuss their work each othersʼ work and to share those conversations with a wider audience the
