the flower nevermore
The prevalence of fast fashion manufacturing featuring synthetically made materials has literally inundated the planet with mountains of discarded clothes and unused excess material. In this evocative art and dance project, 10cent diamond conceived, choreographed and produced a short film that metaphorically illustrates the effects of this destructive process on the spiritual and physical well-being of each of us who inhabit the earth.
Artifact of Attraction
When 10cent diamond traveled to Borrego Springs, CA, we became enchanted by the Sky Art Desert Sculpture Garden housed on the Galletta Meadows land parcels. Originally conceived by the late landowner Dennis Avery to bring art to his beloved local community and its visitors, the artworks and desert lands are currently under the stewardship of the Under the Sun Foundation. Primarily featuring more than 130 works of sculptor Ricardo Brecera, these vast, open-air “galleries” depict life-sized, figurative artworks inspired from the history of this breathtaking region. An evocative gateway by sculptor Allison Wiese opens the film which, re-imagines the continual passage of time and the creatures that have influenced the history and evolution of this impeccable landscape.
Quando, Quando, Quando
mj68 and 10cent diamond teamed up to produce this collaborative homage of our love for one of hollywood’s greatest and most iconic institutions - the new york street on the universal studios backlot.
