My two walls

April 19, 2010

I moved my studio today.

By the grace of coincidence I’m taking over a small space that’s next to my old one at 59 Rivoli, in the center of Paris. I’ve been in a very small studio (it’s basically the hallway), making it work for me, but now I will have a corner! Here are pics of the old space, an example of size not mattering. It’s not always the tools you have (though I do love new tools!), but how you put them to work for you.

Left-to-right, it was:

Back-left corner is where I’ll now be working. The wall of photos is in the space where I’ve been the last several months

The full width of my space/hallway/studio, between the the walls. I even shared a corner with remnants from the squat pre-renovation. In the corner there is the old bathroom door, provocatively painted by Hao.

The wall between my and Aliocha’s studio. The b&w collage is staying, and growing. The other photos and black background are gone. Francesco’s studio is in the distance, with his Don Quixote de la Mancha on the far wall.
