Do Ho Suh

I went to LACMA and the tar pits this weekend. All of the art I saw was completely uninspiring; pool toys shoved into a ladder, an iron on the floor, trash crumpled into a corner. I dont know, perhaps I am missing something.

I was, however, extremely impressed by the artist featured below, his obvious talent and ability dwarfed the other artists, almost to a comical point.

Meant to represent his feelings as an American immigrant from Korea. Great detail was taken to replicate each tiny room. It has taken him 2 and a half years to complete. Unbelievable work.

MY WANDERLUST ABLAZE

Travel to heights beyond expectation. Search for happiness every day. Explore.
Be kind to yourself, to your world and to each other. Test borders and push boundaries.
Question your mortality, then learn to live with gratitude.
Savor the moment. Find comfort in your emotions, but never let them control you.
Find creative inspiration in all things.
Dream, but live in reality. Accept your own truth.
Things are not always what they seem. Good comes from bad and bad comes from good.
Judging others is a complete waste of time, you never know when you might find yourself facing a similar situation.
Laughter is the best medicine.

Ambition is sexy. Music is divine. Fashion is art. Love is all that matters.
