i’ve been hibernating for the past few weeks, working on an upcoming exhibition + book. but i did manage to sneak away for a new year’s celebrating with these noodles, ALEXIS + TODD.

couldn’t be prouder of TODD for his grammy nomination + the rest of the team behind the RANDOM ACCESS MEMORIES record.

thanks RONY for this last photo of 2013.

a few days later i used the dual excuse of finishing my disposable camera + seeing this dear friend before his move to NY to grant myself another leave from the edit bay.

it was the ideal respite from work with MATT + NATE (working the camera + sadly not picture). thanks for bringing me out, boys.

SWEETLIFE 2013 was one massive music + food party, meticulously planned in WASHINGTON D.C. but held at MERRIWEATHER POST PAVILLION in MARYLAND.

the crew: ZIWI x RITA x JIHANE rocking our limited edition “beets don’t kale my vibe” tees.

definitely joined a cult for the weekend.

celebrated my dear friend MATT RISING’s birthday in a magical forest + brought along the essentials : good people, good food, good music + good love.

we all took full advantage of the yurt over the course of our 24-hour stay.

some more than others.

KESH + i had the pleasure of driving up to the forest with newest member to our triumvirate: JUSTIN GILYANI

MOËT + dino kale

it came time to turn the cameras off, almost.

+ then the day began to blur.

it felt pretty much like this.

i woke up with a gnarly burn, the origins of which i couldn’t pinpoint. perhaps the underground oven. who can be sure?
happy birthday MATTY.
