TOKION'S "THE DISOBEDIENTS" ISSUE
So I was going through old magazines last night after I got back from California and I came across the Tokion Disobedients issue from like 2002.
Beyond being a trip down memory lane of artists who's work I used to (some of whom I still do) drool over and steal from, it was a nice reminder of the energy and excitement that comes with young people making stuff together.
If sensation was sparked by the work actually in the magazine, or if it was more of a memory of where I was when I got the issue, I can't say. Either way, it was nice to see 1026 mentioned alongside The Luggage Store, New Image and Alife as a venue that fostered those then young artists.

SATURDAY NIGHT @ PADLOCK
"But You Simply Must Fit" - Wendy Jane Hyatt
Opening Saturday May 3, 2008 8 - 12PM
Featuring Paintings, photographs and Fabrications
@ Padlock, 1409 Ellsworth
~~Other Events This Month~~
·Clothing Swap May 10, 2008 8PM "Wendy's favourite time for sewing and darning was after they had all gone to sleep." Clothing Swap and All-night Alteration with Wendy Jane Hyatt, Hilary Price, K-fai Steele, Margaret Rolicki, Leslie Salazar, Stephanie Brown, and Jennifer Rice
The Padlock Gallery will play host to our second installment of clothing swaps. The purpose of the swap is pretty simple. Participants bring unwanted garments and share with those who may want to save, re-use or alter the cast-aways. The artists on hand will collaborate after the swap to adorn each others bodies as a simple act of survey, measurement and assessment. Participants will construct individually tailored garments for eachother or themselves by cross sharing seamstress, patternmaking, bust making and other communally held skills. We will work late into the night, using the recycled material source (the swap) to make a type of garment habitat for each unique person based on their dimensions and daily activities. The result should be a sort of life-uniform or even superhero costume which would enable that person negotiate all range of circumstances and adventures.
THANKS!~
