No. 1 at the Box Office

I just wanted to take a moment to thank Eugenia Loukain, Mischa Balilty and the whole Blackout Fest Team for an AMAZING show! The event was a total success and the start of something phenomenal. It was a pleasure showcasing my work at the festival and it felt incredible to watch people interact with my pieces (like a mother sending her child off for their first day of school).

Don't fret if you missed the show, check out my 'Seating at the Oscars' and 'Reclaimed Movie Theater Seats' posts for the process of how I gave new life to old movie theater seats.

I was so disappointed to have missed the Blackout Fest workshops with these three revolutionary artist. Not only did Philippe Blanchard, Frank Rodick and Alex Mcleod talked about their stories and the choices they made to establish themselves in their field, but also shared a wealth of knowledge in a Q&A session to educate aspiring artist on their journey to success.
