SS.Vol.2 Sew Seoulful-East Coast Release....and uhm, my First Solo Show

This was the opening for my 3rd Zine SS Vol. 2 (Sew Seoulful). The term "sew" refers to joining fabric, or in this case (art/ideas) together. Seoul, refers to the birthplace of my father "Seoul" Korea, and "Seoulful" refers to a mixtape i used to make back in the day with alot of soulful samples from several genres of music. Energy never dissappears, it just changes form.......
SS is a series of zines I started in 2007 and one which i plan to do until I get tired of it. thanks to all those who came thru and supported. It was truly a very humbling experience and and an honor to share my art w/ you. If you have any fotos from that night, please hit me up...

Thank yall for downloading, and feedback and donations are always appreciated! That's what keeps the independent artists going.

Cambodia, Korea, Bboying, and inspiration everywhere.....

Peep game, so for you artists ...if I can offer one word of advice that keeps me gng besides rocking with a crew of artistic maniacs...look for other artists who are dope.I guarantee it will help you stop procrastinating and put the pedal to the metal.Case in point. I was somehow lead to two dope visual artists :
EKUNDAYO http://www.ekundayo.com/
and
ANDREW HEM http://www.andrewhem.com/
these two artists are hella raw, take notes.

annnnnd I stumbled across Andrew's blog where the homie posted up two videos related to the lost art of bboying.Not only that, the seoul in me jumped when i saw a video with a battle btwn Bboys in Korea vs some japanese cats.Ridic.peep:


and: KK from Cambodia descent, raised in Long Beach-gets deported, brings -BBoying out thurr yawl.


Inspiration is everywhere......
Who said this:
"I bet you niggas lookin like...damn she fine.
But on the hold sucka duck,
ol' girl can rhyme...
and im not up in the party tryna sex shit up,
i dumb dumb it enuf
so listen close baby doll
cuz i keep a few tricks tucked under my cuff
so if u want a lil' sumn, step up"
-?(Los Angeles)

"life is like a dice game,
one roll could land you in jail
or cuttin cake
blowin kisses in the rice rain
.......they say candyman candyman
spit me a dream
blow a chunk of the levees out
and spit me a stream
knock a mans house down
and build a casine
a 2 thousand dollar goverment check from feem"
-?(New Orleans)
