GUEST BLOGGER: KELLY TUNSTALL & HER SHOW WITH FERRIS PLOCK! PT2

PART TWO...(there is a link to part one of the guest blog post below!)

Of course gifts from clothing companies are given to famous people or people who are seen a lot (and, ironically, probably the people that need clothes less than anyone) so clothes are sponsored and I hope people know about it- basically stealth advertising.

As far as brands and the web go, success is measured in terms of impressions, or more literally, eyeballs; so those are woven into the fabric of the skirt.

We use the magnification interface every time we zoom up and when selecting text on a phone so I chose to use that visual paradigm in "sponsored" as well. This was actually supposed to be two paintings; I often collide two concepts that I think will work together. 

Now I certainly don't expect anyone to get all of this; the party trick with our work is that though it's pretty light on the surface, if you spend a little bit of time, I hope you start seeing that things are not at all what they seem. Of course we are working through life like anyone else, we just happen to process very, very visually and like to make things that are beautiful to us, as well as (hopefully) thought provoking to others.

Ferris and I are really happy to be showing together again, and at FFDG- John and Jessica have always been very supportive of us. Hope you like the show....

Thanks!
