Views from Fo Tan.
Taken on the same day as Fotanian 2011 Open Studios.

fotanian

Some photos I took from the Fotanian 2011 Open Studios I went to a few weekends ago.
Hong Kong actually has a surprising amount of artist villages and Fotanian is a wonderful example. In Fo Tan, a former industrial area, twelve separate buildings contain over 260 artists who open up their studios each January to the eager public.
Obviously, the event draws many hipsters creative, art loving types, I have never seen so many people with analog cameras at the same time, well post 1999.

Last days of summer.
1. Lying on the grass mattress with the only boy in the world.
2. Dog models: they'll piss on your camera and then come back and do it again.
3. Modernism in Toronto, courtesy of Mies van der Rohe and some rich banking billionaires.

snack'ems

You are what you eat, not what eats you back.*
1. Cupcakes for no reason.
2. Nuit Blanche fish grill. I'm actually not sure if this was an art display or a self serve fish vendor, it was manned by many a hipsters, and when I say manned I mean stood around by. Never hire a hipster as an employee.
3. Thanksgiving turkey massacre with my friends clad in plaid.

*Jenny Lewis, sort of.

Last one, from that roll anyways.
This place is just down the street from me, my neighbourhood is full of interesting storefronts.

neon

1. My old roommate's dog Lexi.
2. An ode to Juergen Teller with the shoes I diy'ed for my birthday.
3. A beautiful sign near by house, this is one of my favourites from the roll, if I had money I'd buy this sign and hang it in my house, I love it so much.

I'm a terrible paht tyme bloggah, but thanks to a little encouragement from my friend Kavi, I'm now back. Here's a lazy post to get me started. These are some shots from the first roll of film I took with the Minolta I got at the Cabbagetown garage sale back in September, but you probably don't know about that because I only planned to write a post about it in my head, head blogging is much easier than real blogging.
