First Friday 6-6-14-Open Studio

First Friday 02.07.14

Upstairs at studio/gallery 6 "Cannibal Eyes: Transformational Drawing and Collage" features new collage and drawings by Todd Hale (@flavorhead). Part of an open body of work, "Cannibal Eyes" features work made from an excavation of pop culture and cartoon imagery. The process incorporates video, animation, collage, painting and drawings made on an ipad. On display will be fossils and relics from this on-going exploration, in the form of conjured beings and technicolor visions.

Downstairs Chilalay, a Richmond based collective (@chilalay_), hosts a pop-up art and fashion show featuring multiple artists as well as the work of painter (and the show's curator) Earl Mack (@earl_mack). Live DJs and clothing and merch for sale.

Both shows are open from 6pm-10pm, visit toddhale.com and chilalay.com for more information.

Animations of ipad drawings

Cue from todd s. hale on Vimeo.

Both "Cue" and "Whatshisface" are animated progressions of ipad drawings from start to finish. While creating work on the ipad I save each layer or stage and have combined them with music I created using the Animoog as well as guitar tracks.

Help for those affected by the storm

Hopefully my tribute to the power of Olivia Newton John and Mother Nature has helped people laugh a little in a tense situation. Through the years my part-time home of the Outer Banks has been very good to me and its people and beauty have inspired me greatly. As a photographer at the beach many of my customers are from Maryland, Delaware, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut. Unfortunately these friends now share in the devastation of Hurricane Sandy with the Outer Banks. Please help them bounce back if you are able. Use the link below to donate to the Red Cross.

also please remember those that can't take care of themselves (pets):
