vassallo

helllllooo alllll. hiiii julia. uh as a sidenote i would like to mention that iv been trying to figure out whats wrong with my jpegs... and the internet is going slow as a goose right now but il try emailing them to you again tomorrow.

but in other news, so im working on our new project. and my "backpocket idea" is basically the idea of pasta. working with it for my last project, i have grown to kindof love pasta for some weird reason. i love the shape and the texture, and the different things you can do with it. so i took this to ken, and he was basically like, why do you want to work with pasta. and pretty much the only responce i had was, cause i like pasta. so im trying to dig deeper. and i think iv come to the comclusion that pasta is kindof my reminder of home. at home, both in saint louis and in my house in maryland, pasta is for dinner overwhelmingly often. and even though im in italy, where pasta is also on the menu 24/7... it still reminds me of home. and then me and ken started brainstorming about this idea that pasta is my "security blanket." and from there, i have decided to make somekind of pasta creation, using sewing. and perhaps really make a blanket, or just sew a "plate of pasta" and hopefully bring it around florence with me. and probly take pictures... of my security pasta and me, banging around town. we'll see how this goes... i gotta go figure out how im gunna do it.

pace all!
