Back from Oaxac(a)

After two weeks in Oaxaca, I am back in Michigan attempting to get things ready for the arrival of fall [not to mention an opening at the Nokomis Center on Labor Day]. Nonetheless, Oaxaca was great and I met some super rad artists. Hopefully, I will continue working with these folks and get Just Seeds down that way. Here are a couple flics from the trips.


This is me showing off my body at Monte Albán. Actually, I set up the camera for a timed shot and missed my head. I thought it looked kinda dope, though.



Being touristy at El Ex-Convento de Santo Domingo in Oaxaca de Juárez.



The entrance to the Tianguis Cultural Libertad y Resistencia. There was a graffiti 'tournament' when I was there.



Some beautiful vegan tacos with agua de jamaica! Mmmmmm.



In San Bartolo Coyotepec with Don Valente (the famous Doña Rosa's son) demonstrating his technique to get barro negro.



Renowned alebrijero Jacobo Angeles showing us how to get an animal spirit from a piece of wood. San Martín Tilcajete, Oaxaca.



Outside La Curtiduría, the artist residency + gallery I worked with in Ciudad Oaxaca.



Outside La Curtiduría, a mural for a show currently hanging about corn and food politics.



One of the cats from Lapiztola giving a demo at La Ex-Galería Azomalli.



Lapiztola work outside La Curtiduría.



Come on, that's a dope name for a band! Los Mexican Powers.



Chillin' on the beach in Bahías de Huatulco during a rain storm. The fresh fished smelled good (does this signal the end of fifteen years of vegandom?).
