I was thinking about HOW MUCH I LOVE NEW YORK!
....Shopping for vintage clothing, getting Japanese food, seeing a movie, taking a class, going to college, visiting the friends, going to Gay PRIDE, hitting a strip club, buying fruits from the street vendors, having Jamaican shrimp patties with coco bread, clubbing, stopping by my spiritual centers for a tune-up, going ice skating at Rockefeller center, visiting the sex shops in Greenwich, seeing family, buying kente cloth, going to the BAM Dance African Street Festival, visiting an art gallery, stopping by the black bookstores, getting a bagel with cream cheese & jelly and a hot chocolate, shaking it at the West Indian Eastern Parkway Labor Day Parade - Caribbean Carnival, etc.
# THE ENLIGHTENED MIND
Hello to.....
- East New York Brooklyn
- Upper East Side
- Little India
- Little Caribbean (to The Black Caribbean Flatbush) -
I attended "City College of New York" in Black Harlem from 1996 - 2004.
I changed my MAJOR a few times to FINALLY find my SOULMATE....Art History!
It took me about 8-9 YEARS to complete my BACHELOR'S!
I WORKED full-time, while going to school PART-TIME (and on Saturdays).
It was WONDERFUL staying in the CITY, while going to school!
GOD was right!

I just went to visit my family and friends in NYC in October. It was a beautiful trip. Fun. Restful. Cold. I am so grateful for the ability to enjoy the company of those I love. I am so grateful that I know that balanced living is important. I am so grateful for my growth. I am so grateful for all those who love and support me. Thank you, Divine Source!!
What does it take for two artists|humans to continuously sense and attune to the spin of their Planet? What creative, spiritual, philosophical and material consequences might result from living this awareness?
As artists living the Anthropocene, we are increasingly curious about what happens when we attempt to hold the thought of, pay close attention to, and track Earth-magnitude change as it plays out on local, daily-life scales. To explore that question, we are reshaping everyday actions and developing and honing new capacities of perception and attention at scales that are beyond our usual habits of mind.
East is a Circle is an experimental practice exploring what it takes for humans to rescale our daily live practices and ways of knowing to the current and evolving parameters of life on Earth. As conventional languages of “sunset,” “sunrise” and “east” begin to change meaning for us as a result of our performative research, we will change the stories we tell of them. As we multiply our perspectives on Earth in creative response to its ceaseless changes in direction, we will cultivate ways of "knowing" and "seeing" ourselves in relation to the planet that are, likewise, in-motion. Making such shifts in scale, language/concepts/meanings, and perspectives is one way that aesthetic practice might address, and live, the Anthropocene.
About smudge studio is a collaboration between Elizabeth Ellsworth and Jamie Kruse
Since 2005, smudge studio has pursued what we take to be our most urgent and meaningful task as artists and humans: to invent and enact practices capable of acknowledging and living in responsive relationship to forces of change that make the world. Through our current projects and performative research, we design and cultivate embodied practices that support humans in paying nuanced attention to the fast and intense material realities that are now emerging on a planetary scale — without leaving us reeling in states of distraction or despair.
From July 17 to August 3rd, Charmaine Bee will be working in the gallery to create a new installation piece. The exhibition will open on August 4th.
More information will be available during the artist's residency.
