Michelangelo Pistoletto!

Michelangelo Pistoletto is an Italian artist with a phenomenal set of talents and a passion for expressing his creativity in various forms.

there is an exhibition of his work currently on display at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, but for just ONE MORE WEEK!

(note the tea kettles in the middle -- are actually on a low setting during the exhibition, producing condensation on the glass table bottom)

definitely one of my favorite artists of all time!

yarn-bombs not bombs

from the lady (Jessie Hemmons) that "yarn-bombed" these bike racks from good to SUPERCALIFRAGALISTIC outside of Reading Terminal Market which I mentioned several moons ago...

and just when you thought a tree couldn't get any more huggable...

yarn-bombed!

philly loves you too, fair yarn bomber.

check out this rad blog that covers yarn-bombing around the world!!!!
why can't people just have arms races like this?

peace, peace, peace! ...and yarn bombings!

fair food FRIGHTstand

this week, for halloween, I was inspired by some very mousy looking "bulls blood" beets at the farmstand.

their tails just looked so mousy I couldn't resist. added some garlic cloves for ears and shazaam!

genevieve, a farm stand colleague, thought they should live in some kind of a scene, so I figured they'd be quite happy watching the Phillies game on a flat screen TV.

i think they're having a blast!
