Shooting video for Catherine Cabeen’s piece. Turns out these body parts look like an ass. Happy coincidence? I think so.
The work of Deedee Berkowitz
The tags
For an interview, I stayed at the most LA hotel, and couldn’t help but notice the art worst things ever on the hallway walls. I commented they were called I have two types of paint. And because a friend encouraged me, and because it’s something I would do, I curated the hotel’s collection.
I present Deedee Berkowitz, the leading contemporary painter of LA.

Check it out at the Hotel Palomar on Wilshire in Los Angeles before the cleaning staff figures it out.
Either (a) the landscaper who waters the sidewalk in Fremont is going to town, (b) some kid is causing some mayhem, or (c) Olafur Eliasson strikes Seattle.

got some test footage today for an idea I’m kicking around. this is a still from a video.
gymnastics skillz. I still gots em.
At least five times a day, I have to move my eyes away from my computer monitor and look outside so I can remember what true edges and true colors look like. Letting my eyes readjust to the real world brings in to question the more nuanced effects of technology in everyday life.
Are these colors right? Is the monitor backlight just the right hue of white? How do my eyes adjust to the slight blurriness of the virtual representations in my monitor? How does having an image two feet in front of my face eight hours a day affect my vision?
