On On Bodies and Shadows: Caravaggio and His Legacy

During my Thanksgiving vacation I got to visit LACMA and see the Caravaggio Show in the Resnik Pavilion. The show was compiled of influential pieces, as well as pieces that were influence by the genre and painting style Caravaggio developed. There was no photography allowed, but that did not stop me from taking pics in the exhibit. I think the most interesting thing about the body of work, is that it was laid out in a very grand scale. It felt cold and really spaced out. I've included a panorama picture of the event.

Taking iconic jewelry and constant silhouette of the ring to empower and elevate a lifestyle present in San Francisco today. 

 

Cock ring is a sign of continuos play. It is used in a kink and fetish form to prolong rigidity by slowing the blood flow to the penis. It is usually placed at the bottom of the penis with the scrotum through the ring as well. Since the cock ring is used for prolonging the party, I thought it would be a perfect representation of prolonging a celebration that is Iconic to the people who use them (the Folsom Street fair, as well as The Dore Alley street fair) are both part of many kink/fetish lifestyles, such as BDSM, nudity, gay, trans cultures (to name a few). 

on System association

Upon mapping the system of weight training, I started taking voice memos at the gym of words that described actions or thoughts that came to my head as i worked out. There are many contributing factors that come day to day to me making it to the gym. Lately, more often than not, I'm making it 4-5 times a week. The system of loosing fat and gaining muscle is complicated but simple. Complicated in a way you must muster up energy or ability to go. Simple as in following a diet, keeping to great workout form and developing a healthy lifestyle.
