TNT

its the thursday night thing!

went to the museum of contemporary art last night down town. a band, a bar, crafts, a very mixed group of people... all for free! (well 3$ donation)

the exhibit is called 'artists response to a changing planet'. heres the blurg about it: the project uses contemporary art to investigate the relationships between fragile natural environments and the human communities that depend upon them.

and here are the things that moved me most:






The Common Denominator of Existence Is Loss
the piece consists of real human and bear bones!
but mostly the shadow it cast on the ground is what really caught my eye.








Love Has Value Because It’s Not Eternal

Some Longings Survive Death

that is woolly mammoth hair braided into flowers!

and yes woolly mammoths are real! i thought they were like unicorns but apparently not

so quite the lovely evening soaking up the culture in san diego
