Molly Soda at Annka Kultys

Here are a few pics from net artist Molly Soda's debut exhibition at the Annka Kultys gallery in Bethnal Green that I recently visited on my last trip back down to London. 

Climbing the stairs into the space, you could hear audio of the artist crying and it was almost as though she was trapped inside this pink bubble. Walking round the room was a lot like being in a dystopian fiction where the protagonist has had multiple experiences trapped inside a container and you're going through their memory library trying to understand their life.

One video saw Molly trawling through a pile of roses, continuing the "he loves me, he loves me not" rhyme with phrases that presumably relate to a past relationship of hers. Another - the one with the sobbing - played from a seemingly broken monitor screen. There were also various lip sync videos scattered around on iPhones and iPads.

The gallery owner mentioned to me that each piece was priced according to the amount of views the particular moving image had amounted online and that they came on their own memory stick hand decorated with plastic gemstones by the artist herself. Unfortunately it's no longer open to the public, however you can watch all the videos featured here on Molly's YouTube channel. 

I need more plants and beanbags in my house.

Lol it me

LondonEdge Blogger Meet Up With Jawbreaker

Yours truly taking herself very seriously, as per.

Whilst everyone else on planet Earth spent Sunday nursing their hangover, a number of particularly dedicated bloggers headed to Kensington Olympia for the London Edge event to scour out items for future outfit posts, hang out and generally have a rad time. Upon arrival we were handed a massive bag of goodies and a glass of Prosecco so it was obvious that it would already be a great day. Surprisingly I wasn't yet tipsy in the photo above where I'm flailing about in my new Jawbreaker dress, just overly excited.

Being reunited with a bunch of cool cats* that I'd met at the last event back in September was really great and it was great fun going round together ogling at all the clothes on offer. My absolute favourite items included the Iron Fist Care Bear collection, everything the Yummy Gummy latex brand has ever made and one particular dress by House of Intelligence which at first appeared to be an allover print of space but was actually an image of cancer cells under a microscope.

Outfits suitable for a space empress.

Iron Fist's sheer Care Bears shirt that I need in my wardrobe ASAP. 

Samantha and Isabella on the afterparty bus on it's way to Gem bar, unfortunately I have no pictures after this point due to free bar reasons.

Jon Burgerman's Tumblr Girls

Picture of a Tumblr girl standing in front of many pictures of Tumblr girls, probably should've posted this on Tumblr for the girls.

If you're one of those people who go to the beach to ogle the ladies* but don't like the feel of sand against your skin then I've got just the thing for you. The place in question isn't actually on the shoreline - Beach London is an art space just off Brick Lane and it's currently full to the brim of Jon Burgerman's illustrations of cool womenfolk. Although only one room large, it's easily my favourite gallery in the city as the work on display is always simultaneously funny and aesthetically pleasing. 

The cat on her right shoulder really speaks to me. No honestly, he won't shut up.

The above drawing was probably my favourite, firstly due to the cats but also because her lack of bodily detail gives off spooky ghost vibes. 'Tumblr Girls' ends April 26th so you still have ages to pop in but if you're not going to be in London any time soon then luckily for you he has posted some on Tumblr itself.

*Please don't actually ogle the ladies, nobody likes that guy.

Booth Babery at Warped UK

We had to test the camera was working, obviously.

We had to test it more than once,  obviously.

Last weekend at Warped Tour, rapper Watsky stupidly stage-dived off some light rigging hurting both himself and some of the crowd. The day before this, me and Sophie were there running the photo booth. Highlights from the day include taking many selfies, having Zoe LDN come over to have photos taken whilst filming for Big Deal Clothing, some girls in our booth with The Maine and possibly making their life and going making use of our staff pass and having free unlimited jägerbombs backstage amongst bands we haven't even heard of.
