Sandals

On Friday I went to a preview of the Emily Carr Graduation Exhibition 2006. I only saw part of the show so I’d like to go back. I posted some photos on Flickr.com but I must say I wasn’t paying much attention to the artistic nature of my photos.

Things I like the most:
1. Walking sticks. There were all sorts of coloured walking sticks. You could select your stick and use it all around the exhibition. Some had little wheels on the bottom.
2. The Girl in the Moon. There was a huge wall with a purple background and a yellow circle. It looked like a moon to me. There was a yellow ladder and the artist was wearing a purple dress and painting little purple and yellow creatures on the wall.
3. The animations. There were a couple of short animated films that I loved. Tree for Two by Joel Furtado was the winner of the Electronic Arts Reveal 06 Canadian 3D animation showdown. It think his film was shorter than the title of the award he won. I was a fan of A Hamster Tail by Andrea Shimizu. The characters reminded me of the Moomins, which apparently no one in North America has heard of.

I want to go back and watch all the animations. JumpTrumpRumpBump looked really cool but I only watched the preview.

One of the things I didn’t like was that lots of the animations ripped off the circle of circles used in Bugs Bunny’s exit. Maybe that was a required element.

That’s all for now folks!
