Found Art


Who knows what found art is??? Found art is art created from found undisguised objects that are not normally considered art often because they already have a non-art function. Marcel Duchamp ( France) was the originator of this in the early 20th century and Picasso was going crazy with it too. Found art derives its identity as art from the designation placed upon it by the artist. Here is a found art piece created by myself, i call it : " Shair". It was once a SHopping cart, now it is a cHAIR. "SHAIR". It took alot of effort ( and violence) to get the cart into my car for transportation to the work shop at school, and a lot of sawing but it was a fun project and i am happy with the results and i have never seen it done before. So while i am patting myself on the back for a great job please enjoy my art! And i must say it is rather comfy to sit in...haha. Have a good day!

Dancing in Benin, Africa



This is a backstage video (!) clip of me and my dancepartners background dancing for the artist Mohombi(fr. group Avalon). Their manager flew me, Melpo and Jacqueline down to Benin, Africa, where we stayed durign the KORA awards in 2008. It was truly a blessing to visit Benin, see the culture, the people, the nature and eat some of the food they eat there. I never got my luggage ( connection flights! think it was stuck in paris) so luckily Melpo and Jacqie hooked me up and we ended up looking all right for stage. We had rehearsed for one song-one number, but when we met the founders of the award-show, the day before the actual performance, we were asked to performe to - not one song -but three. Surprised- we went to coregraph the rest, we had the rest of that day to get the new dances IN too our muscular memory, set the formations and work it out on the stage the very next day. I had a blast. Loved this experience. Thankful for it. Today Mohombi is signed with Akon and his music is commercially played all over the world. Melpo is taking on her singing career as a dancehall artist- watch out for her in the near future, and Jacquie is teaching and spreading the love for the dancehall culture back in Stockholm, Sweden with her crew Enough. Well, this is how it turned out yall. Enjoy it! :)
