Day 98

today was again full of galleries and photography. it was a bit more fulfilling than yesterday at least with some more interesting images to look at and talks to listen to.
we actually started the day wandering up to the french farmers market in parnell, just for a little look....all a bit boring for me these days as i can't eat anything too exciting, so it was probably a little more self-torture than anything! but i hadn't been since i lived in akl, so wanted just to have a nosy.
we had gone in that direction to check out the whitcliffe art school's exhib, but when we got there it was still all closed, so we headed up to parnell for brunch instead and accidently came across a delightful exhibition which was like a short film in it's imagery and storytelling.
headed back into town and saw more works that were interesting and inspiring. after more caffeine we went and listened to a talk by patrick reynolds, a renown architectural photographer in nz. although that is his work that is mostly seen, he has produced some amazing fine art over the years. he is also a very interesting speaker and i was pretty impressed to be honest.
the highlight of my day tho had to be dinner! burger fuel! man i miss it! they really do the best burgers out. yum!

365 days has been around for ever (it's probably older than me even). i have resisted the temptation to do one, until now.
i am the photographic artist in residence at christchurch polytechnic, new zealand, this year. a friend decided she was going to do a 365 days, and conned me into doing it too. I figured it would be a great project for the year, and a great way to remember the year. to make it a little more challenging, i decided to take self-portrait each day.
so here goes
