I opine, you opine, we all opine for nice design

You can’t deny it. Art is cool. Well maybe you can. I guess that’s what they call an “opinion.” But I can’t deny it. Ok. I take it back. Some art is cool. Some fails to impress me. (See earlier statement re: opinion.) Ok. My high-impact blanket statement opening is losing steam here. Onward…

The One Twelve Gallery (slash church) has an exhibit right now called Seamless featuring textile art from local artists. The wildest pieces there were Clay McLaurin's black and white sewn paper thingies (That’s a technical term—I asked the artist*). I wasn’t too impressed with the reconstructed jeans. There goes that mighty opinion again.












* Lie #1 on this blog: I did not talk to the artist about the technical term for his pieces, but I did talk to him about how freakin awesome they were.
