CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS - THE DRAWING ROOM

Call for Submissions

http://drawnfestival.ca/

A featured component of Drawn 2010, this juried exhibition will showcase drawing as an innovative artistic discipline with a unique and vital role to play in contemporary cultural expression. At once a celebration of the medium’s diversity and an investigation into its underlying unities, The Drawing Room aims to take the pulse of current drawing practices in Canada, giving the public an opportunity to engage with the dynamic work and talent of artists from across the country.

The competition is open to Canadian artists of professional standing aged 18 years or older. Drawing will be interpreted broadly as any form of mark making. There is no limitation on style and technique. Innovative works encompassing a wide range of artistic practice are encouraged.

A jury panel made up of six distinguished members of the visual arts community will choose 50 works by 50 artists for inclusion in the exhibition and the accompanying catalogue. Both the exhibition and the festival launch will be held at the Pendulum Gallery in downtown Vancouver. The exhibition runs July 17-August 7.

Submission deadline: May 29, 2010
Submission fee: $35 *

* All money raised through the Drawing Room submission process will be used to directly support the activities of the volunteer-run Vancouver Drawing Festival Society (VDFS). In particular, the collected fees will help cover costs associated with The Drawing Room juried exhibition, including venue rental, display and lighting, framing and/or installation, security, promotion, catalogue production costs (photography, printing, design and distribution), and opening and closing receptions. A more detailed financial statement will be made available upon request after the conclusion of the festival.

THE POVERTY OLYMPICS

Oh Canada
Our home on Native land.
A billion for security,
Instead of building homes.
Olympic spending has gone sky high
While thousands sleep outside.

From far and wide
Oh Canada
Invite the world to see
A quarter million souls,
Poor and freezing cold.
Oh Canada, where is e-qual-i-ty?
Oh Canada, we are ashamed of thee.

The clock stops ticking!

I find it absolutely hilarious that the Olympic Clock just all of a sudden stopped ticking on Monday night...I personally think it's foreshadowing! Too bad TIME itself didn't actually stop, I could really use some of that rare commodity right now!

Apparently the reason for the stoppage was a " major electrical upgrade" within the downtown Vancouver core!

TANTRA FITNESS

To those of you who dont actually understand what tantra is, let me start by saying that it is NOT SEX! According to the beautiful ladies at TANTRA FITNESS ( Vancouver/Langley/UBC)... They teach classes like " Pole Dancing, Exotic Dance, Ball Fit and many more! Check out the website http://tantrafitness.com/

"Tantra is actually an upwardly motivating energy within ourselves. Harnessing this energy will help us discover parts of ourselves that have remained asleep or have been repressed. We can learn to use this energy for pleasure, self confidence, new awareness and to discover our sensual self. Tapping into this energy can help a person to enjoy life to the fullest, do away with guilt or fear, and break down self imposed or limiting boundaries. We become empowered, more fulfilled, and more perfect.*" - Excerpt taken from the Tantra Fitness website.

This gorgeous studio represents everything that I stand for! They do their best to encourage women to gain confidence and improve themselves! Most importantly they encourage women to encourage and take hold of their own sexuality! I LOVE IT! I had the pleasure of shooting a music video with one of the beautiful instructors (Elena) and was absolutely astounded by her talent!!! She is one strong chick with amazing skill!!! I encourage you to take a class there, I know I will!!!!

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! On my travels through the world wide web I came across this gorgeous creation! After sitting here for a few minutes deliberating with my slightly perplexed boyfriend, we have decided that it is a combination of a Collar and a Capelet. ( maybe we should call it a caper heehee....ahem.)This particular Caper was made by Ellita Couture, a Brooklyn, NY based group of talented knitters that create a number of funky silk lined neck pieces!
You can find these pieces at Secrets Of Identity ( Yaletown ) or you can go to the Ellita Couture website here!
