This is footage of my first solo show, featuring black ink drawings and the second installment in my SS Zine series. "Sew Seoulful" SS .Volume two. It was documented and edited by Ms O.M. Ajayi who will be showing her debut film in Boston tommorrow. The show was held at Fresthetic in Brooklyn, NY. Since the show I've gotten the Zine into several stores in California and NY such as Desert Island(NY), Blue Stockings (NY), Bergen St. Comics(NY), Pegasus Books (CA), Rock Paper Scissors(CA), Pins and Needles (SF),and Fresthetic (NY) of course. I'm still trying to get it into some other spots, but I'm also starting to work on the 3rd Zine in the SS series. Stay tuned..
This was a peace I did for my first solo show back in May of 2009 at Fresthetic-Brooklyn, NY. It kind of embodies the title of my blog too.There is a video of this show coming very soon for folks who have never been to Fresthetic or Brooklyn.Thanks to the folks that came out to see that show, I felt the love. Feliz Ano Nuevo!

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...
