I’ve endured mental chaos the past week, thankfully I’m over this. My head is sore from Choq’s spray cans but satisfied from this morning’s readings on energy laws and organic gardening.

Anyway, I think your all really great. Thank you for supporting my work xxx

suicide in slow motion

2012-01-28T06:27:00.002+08:00

One of my loved ones is suicide in slow motion. This is breaking my heart. I am so angry at the passive bystanders. The apathy of human beings turns my blood hot.

My companions are flying into Melbourne from WA this evening. For now, I will eat muesli inside the warehouse within my little cave of a bedroom. Fireworks are blasting through the city, it's giving me a right fright.

reader request: room tour

2012-01-05T13:09:00.007+08:00

A room tour has been requested many times, so here it is. My bedroom is within a 100+ year old building, the window overlooks an alley. Spray cans and rapid paws plod along the alley around 3am, and sometimes I make old man sounds to frighten those walking by.

Let me tell you some raw facts people,
the most popular things are overrated e.g. people.
And the under-hyped details are in reality, really magnificent. e.g. a flower.

Today is January 1st 2012. My body aches a little from dancing, but my head and liver are clear. My plans today:

Write up two gallery proposals.
Complete my busking permit application.
” my best pals letter.
Continue studying permaculture and victory garden text books.

My housemate is making me a bloody mary, again.
Now everyone within the house is fast asleep due to the heat.

Some new work on the tumblr: www.shibuffalo.tumblr.com

A brief tastetest of the show's 'theme'.

The piece I'm working on will take a solid week, but the end result will be saucy. On an unrelated note, grocery shopping must be done today. Lentils, porridge and raw carrots have been my sole diet the past 8 days. If only I were a trustfund baby, joke* A midget budget can be fun & character building.

P.S. APOLOGISES FOR THE TEE DELAY. SOON, SOON.

The big white bird flew in at 6.15am, Melbourne greeted me with a sharp 4°C and blue skies. The day was a blur of familiarising myself with home, playing with the chickens and preparing vegetable beds. I fell asleep by 8.00pm. There is much to do today: groceries at the markets, develop film, bake bread, write letters and continue on a large-scale bird* piece.

Today I am hiding in my bedroom like a troll, preparing my portfolio. It's costing me a crazy amount of dough but the end product will be dope. Too many errands to run today, my brain sizzles beneath the skull.

I AM FLYING HOME IN 3 DAYS, HAVEN'T BEEN BACK IN OVER A YEAR. CANNOT WAIT TO SEE MY FINEST PALS AND DOGGIES AND MUMMY AND DADDY AND RAW OCEAN AND A FULL FRIDGE. MY PANTS JUST FLEW OFF.

P.S. FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ORDERED ZINES, DON'T EXPECT TO RECEIVE ANYTHING IF YOU DON'T PAY WITHIN 3 DAYS.

I WORK HARD AND FOR A FEE, NOT FOR FREE.
