This is a long overdue post, but I feel is a good one to return on after my hiatus. Many of you are probably already familiar with The Atlanta Creatives Project, but for those who aren’t and those who are I think they are a wonderful group to bring up to the forefront of interest.
The project is documenting Atlanta’s creative core to provide backgrounds and faces to place with names around the city. They are establishing a visual and biographical record of the cities young creative forces that would otherwise not be available to the public. On top of that though, photographer Neda Abghari is getting some amazing shots that are completely worth an hour of your time to go through. As of right now the project is being sponsored by local businesses such as rag-o-rama, velocity screen printing, and whitespace to name a few.
The most recent addition to their cataloge of artists is Kristen Mitchell, who also goes by Kiki Blood for her performance work. To date, they have gathered a slew of people, many of who I am definitely going to be printing out poster sized versions of and hanging on my wall. I’m thinking Dosa Kim, Karen Tauches, and the Black Lips will look perfect above my bed with some kiss prints on them.

Another reason for people to avoid Marta: local performance artists perioding all over the seats.
I keep trying to make that picture bigger so I can see if she really is perioding all over the seat, but I can’t. How frustrating is that?

Do you realize how many times I’ve seen this picture without noticing the period blood?
I’m not sure if you’ve ruined my Thursday, or made it AWESOME.
Um. Wednesday.
thank you for mentioning us on your blog! there is nothing like word of mouth to help our cause.
