This was at the Opposite House in Shanlitun, the most interesting designer hotel I've ever been in. That's me and in a glass corridor looking down onto the pool. This is at Li-Space, my favorite gallery in Chaochangdi. The most avant garde contemporary Chinese artists moved out to this rural land in unassuming farm houses and simple red brick facades when the original 798 art district got too comercial for their liking. This piece is called "Man on Fire". Here I am trying to blow Obama out.
I paid an average Chinese person's monthly salary for a decadent meal at Maison Boulud, the restaurant making the most noise in the Beijing dining scene. Meal left my mind dissapointingly intact but wallet markedly lighter.
Art pushing boundaries at 798

Buy a candle, and maybe your ancestors will grant your wish
I almost tatooed branches of blossoms spiraling up my back this summer. I will just admire them on trees for now.
