I will be at this event on Wednesday in Milan at @frabs_magazines , it’s gonna be a nice little launch of a fan/artzine featuring my work and put together by the lovely @cotocloftoclo
I’ll be having a brief chat with a clever person (@dieblauedecke ) about art, the internet, humans etc
And also probably drinking too many beers and/or glasses of wine. If you so happen to be in the Milan area please feel free to join.
They’ll even be a few tunes spun by the wonderful and talented @vere.cundia
Opens at 18:30 on the 15th of April, probs talk around 19:00 then everyone can just have a drink and a chat and that with some nice music going.
It’ll be fun and chill and all that stuff 😘
Le Soleil rides its white horse to @frabs_magazines to present its first art-fanzine LAPIDARIO on Wednesday, the 15th of April at 18.30, made in collaboration with the artist Trystan Williams @trystanwilliams2 .
Williams' work focuses on the practice of laser-engraving phrases found online onto small stones he encounters IRL. This multidimensional research preserves the irony, personal stories, and narratives of life in the second millennium written by anonymous users, anticipating a future in which, without electricity, they will be lost.
At 19.00, Williams will be interviewed by Lorenzo Zaffaroni - aka @dieblauedecke - the academic researcher in cultural sociology who investigates the intersection of artistic languages, the political agency of aesthetic forms, and the transformation of cultural fields.
For the launch, a water-repellent book jacket was created by designer Manfredi Montalto -aka @memefredi - re-using an old parka of mine, a weirdly cute fabric found in the market, and yellow "code di topo".
Last but not least, @vere.cundia - aka the best friend-support system ever - will play nice tunes to keep everyone in a good sunny spirit.
See you there! 🌞

A few years ago a good friend and fellow artist (@vebossert.art ) gave me two pieces of stone that they’d picked up on a trip to the Orkney Islands. They gave me the location and said I should put them back, I work very slowly so have only just got around to engraving one of them. Once they’re both done I’ll try and get up to Orkney and put them back, no rush like. Think the wiggly white stuff on the stone is made by worms that excrete calcium or something, so that’s cool 🪱 💫

‘refined’ Laser engraved text from the internet on found tile fragment.
Posting old work but gonna make new work soon. Think I only really get round to making new work when I’m in a profound state of perfectly refined boredom. Hence reposting this one. Also good to keep the hungry hungry algorithm fed innit. 😘

Posting old schtuff coz I ain’t made no new schtuff.
Storytelling round a campfire, images scratched into the dirt with a stick, oral tradition, song, symbols scratched into stone, runes, cuneiform tablets, ostraca, a Rosetta Stone, papyrus scrolls, illuminated manuscripts, the printing press, newspapers, telegrams, radio, television, the internet.
You get the idea.
