Jeremy Mayer at Creatures of Industry

OK kiddies, lace up your boots. This Saturday, September 4th, is a big night in Barrio Logan. Our friends at Set & Drift have invited us all (that’s you too) to the opening reception of Current at The Bakery in Barrio Logan. The show will be featuring Mercantile, a pop-up-shop showcasing hand crafted goods from 9 American designers as well as an amazing knitted lighting installation by Kwangho Lee.

As if this wasn’t enough, around the corner, Glasshaus is opening its doors for Device Gallery’s Creatures of Industry reception featuring the works of Greg Brotherton, Nemo Gould, Jeremy Mayer and Guillermo Rigattieri.

…There’s more, believe it. Across the street from The Bakery, the opening reception for the group photography show Keeping Time will be going off at Voz Alta. Allright, I’m tired of typing.

Cool Cat: Nick Rodrigues

I just stumbled on Nick Rodrigues’ portfolio site and was blown away by his ‘Human Interaction’ pieces. Absolutely hilarious and perfectly critical on the  vices of our culture. I don’t know much about Nick except I like the way he thinks and I want to be his friend. The ‘Porta-Party,’ The ‘AdverTie‘ and ‘Auto Armor‘ are among my favorite.  “In observing the shifting patterns of current social behavior, I have noticed that each human’s insecurities are often highlighted by the products that they embrace.” See for your self at http://www.nickrodrigues.com/
