pourquoi 423

My friend, LA based artist @stimeyluv1 once stat­ed:

“[artists] are all about com­mu­ni­ty un­til one of us ‘makes it’ be­fore we do. I think it comes from that self-doubt we all car­ry. But, that said, it’s also im­por­tant to sur­round your­self with peo­ple who gen­uine­ly ap­proach friend­ship. Not be­cause of the as­so­ci­a­tion of know­ing you as an artist, but be­cause they gen­uine­ly like you.”

I’ve made real friends through our events. And I’ve been bru­tal­ly hon­est, some­times to my detri­ment, on Der Tung.

Your col­leagues shouldn’t drain you or re­sent your suc­cess and you shouldn’t be judged for bear­ing your soul.

The unini­ti­at­ed may mis­read the neu­ro­sis that pow­ers our en­deav­ors as self-in­dul­gence.

But it’s ex­po­sure ther­a­py.

And FLOMM is a sup­port group.

SAT­UR­DAY we’ll be out do­ing what we en­joy. What we love.

We’ll make it pos­si­ble for you to MAKE ART like nev­er be­fore, art with paints and silkscreen­ing (RED shirts where no one gets killed), and you’ll have our live feed from PARIS.

And you don’t even have to learn the lan­guage. But learn­ing lan­guage is cool.

We’re go­ing to hy­drodip things.

Bring some old cloth­ing ’cause we can’t pre­dict the re­sults. Or use our RED shirts. It’s mar­bling done dif­fer­ent­ly, quick and easy. A lit­tle bit like this:

Every­thing can be cool in the right light … in this case, RED …

As long as we keep the art in front of us.
