BETA Leftovers
I got just a few leftovers from my last solo exhibition. Contact me if you are interested and/or need more details.
Basically it is just some papers and ink, what else to say.

The Yangon “Rendezvous” urban art event has come to an end and I must say that it has been a great show. Beside from great art and great vibes, I think that the most important result of this event is the international exchange and what we can learn from it. These guys were amazing artists and friends and they definitely showed us what they got. Artistically the words I am looking for is confidence and joy in their art. I guess we all been inspired and hopefully this is the beginning of something new. The rock has been put in motion and I am very existed about the future of the YGN streets. Your investment is anyone’s playground.
Big up to Thu Myat for organizing everything!

People start to drop in from all corners of Southeast Asia and we are working late hours to prepare for tomorrow’s opening. I don´t know much about our foreign invaders yet, but have a great feeling about these writers. Good vibes and creativity, what else is needed. So far I have only been able to track down the people from next door Thailand and they have an amazing record.
We are opening tomorrow and around 3 p.m there will be live painting and music. Come on down and support us and the first real Asian graffiti/street art exchange in Boogie Down Yangon. You will find us at 458, Corner of Manawhayi street and Myoma Kyaung street, Dagon Tsp (brown condo under construction near Summit Park view)
Below are some shots of our work in progress and the two paintings I will present at the opening. They are part of a new series (inshallah) which I call #Artistanonymous. It is mixed media on canvas using acrylic, enamel, watercolour in symbioses with glue and shanpaper.

#Artistanonymous #Homeboy, 2012, mixed media on canvas
The first painting of 2012 is ready to go. The working title is #Artistanonymous and it is a mixed media on canvas that will be part of a group exhibition that is opening on February 4 2012. I will get back with more details about the show as soon as possible. All I know is that it has an urban theme and a lot of abbreviations will be in the line-up, does YSA, NSH, SCY, OKP ring a bell. Until the opening I will only give some teasers of the painting in progress. Hope to see you at the opening!

What can I say,
It was one of the best evenings in my life and best of all is that I can remember most of it (even though I was overwhelmed with work and stress before the opening). Thank you so much, everyone that have been supporting me and all the people that came to look and bought my artwork. I hope you know who you are! We had planned for the full moon (we still have problem with electricity here) but I promise you that the lunar eclipse, making the event even more special, was ordered by someone else. For those of you who could not make it, the show is open until 17th of December so please drop by and have a look, and do not hesitate to contact me about the work. After all the purpose was to create a discussion. Until next time, maaaaadlove to everyone for supporting and pushing the artistic expression in Myanmar forward, respect.

Side Effect, Cap and Emily Phyo
The deal is still on, the painting in the background is still for sale, to the highest bid that is! At the moment the price is 450 USD but you still have time to bid higher. ALL PROFIT goes to the band Side Effect and performance artist Emily Phyo and their artistic careers. I just want to give my respect to these guys, they are amazing people and amazing artists and they made the opening of my solo show very special, thank you so much for being part of my life and my show.
You can also read more about my art in an article published in Myanmar Times, have a look and let me know what you think
If you have photos from the opening please send the to me because I want to remember this special evening. Also, drop by at Pansodan Gallery, the show is on until December 17, welcome!
Now, back to the lab….
I am still overwhelmed from yesterdays opening of my solo show BETA Version. Therefore, I decided just to upload all the works I have been struggling with during this year before starting to comment on them. Still, I want to give a huge shout-out to everyone that have been supporting me to realize this very special event, thank you everyone, for the help, for coming to the opening, for buying and supporting my art, for spreading love………… Sharing this time on the rooftop, I guess it make sense to say that only sky is the limit. Honestly, the eclipse was just a bonus, I only ordered a full moon for the evening……….. Respect
