If you are interested in a creative fix and can get over to the Southwest Detroit area for an afternoon, make a B-Line for the Whitdel Art Gallery.  Their latest show features the work of a select group of Fashion and Design people for their 'Trashion" exhibit. 

 

This upcoming weekend Tiffany Best will be a guest speaker at the gallery, which will also include a hands on family art project for the experimental fashion artist in you.   Check out the Whitdel Gallery site for more details.

The Pulitzer prize winning poet Chevlof Milov once said "poetry is very much at least in structure akin to a collage".  I think that is a wonderful analogy.  So much of what we consume visually today is best appreciated in a collage format.  I'm reminded of Pinterest as an example of this kind of digital platform. 

I hope this post is a pleasant visual re-cap of the FILWF exhibit.  Thank you to everyone who came out to see it, to those who worked so hard to make it happen (Special Thanks to Heather Rehe: Salon Rehe, Eric Peoples: Epic Images, Rose Suau: bunnyteeth) and also to those of you who stopped to view this post.  I hope you fall in love with something everyday!
