Hard Rock San Diego Condo Sales Office Transformed Into Art Gallery

admin — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 19:41:29 +0000

The Hard Rock San Diego Condo sales office has been transformed into my new Art Gallery and Studio. The address is 345 6^th St, in between J & K Street, half a block from the Hard Rock Hotel. This 7,000 sq. ft. facility was originally built out as the office space to sell the condos in Hard Rock San Diego.

The next time you’re downtown in The Gaslamp area of San Diego, come check out the gallery.

If you’re looking for an ultra unique gift for that special someone, a body imprint of yourself will be remembered forever.

Call the gallery if you have questions (866) 652-8375

My most recent art project was inspired after seeing the innovative art project by Swiss artist Marcel “Sala” Salathe of One Thousand Paintings. Here is Sala speaking at Google about Onethousandpaintings.com which has become a global art project that has received worldwide media coverage (BBC, Wired, BoingBoing, and many others) Sala will tell the story behind the project that started as a thought experiment in the heart of Europe, and took him on a trip around the world, eventually bringing him to Mountain View - Googletown.

Oshiguma – The Hero’s Mask

admin — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 03:31:48 +0000

Oshiguma is a Japanese form of body imprinting. This highly valued art form is created from cloth (often silk) pressed on to a Kabuki actors face at the end of a performance to take the imprint of his makeup. The Kabuki actor peels off the silk to reveal the oshiguma, a perfect mirror image of the actor face make-up in that particular role on that particular day. This procedure is likely to be repeated everyday for a month long run, and when the face imprints are completely dry, the actor signs, dates, and stamps them with his personal seal.
