Dithyrambalina: Musical Architecture in New Orleans
by angeliska on July 27, 2011
So! I am very excited to announce that Colin and I will be collaborating on a piece that will be part of amazing project called Dithyrambalina: The Brooklyn-based artist Swoon, who may know from her beautiful wheat-pasted cut-out street art (…)
Exquisite Corpse – Stray Cat Strut
by angeliska on July 12, 2011
My look for the evening ended up looking something like if Dark Lily from Legend had ended up doing it with a cat on the side. Maybe one that had a penchant for KISS? This scene is definitely at the (…)
Sweet Violets
by angeliska on May 25, 2011
Earlier this month, we took a journey up North, where it is still spring. Little green fiddleheads are just starting to poke their drowsy heads up from the dark earth. The air was sharp and green, the black branches of (…)
Mardi Gras Madness
by angeliska on March 4, 2011
We’re in a mad flurry of sequin sewing, trim-gluing and puppet-building leading up to Fat Tuesday, so I had better share this rundown of pictures from last year’s big day now, before I get buried up to my neck in (…)
Krewe of Eris – Lux et Voluptas
by angeliska on March 1, 2011
Last year, the annual Krewe of Eris Parade fell on Valentine’s Day, making for a mighty romantic and randy procession. The official theme was Lux et Voluptas, or Light & Pleasure – but I think most of us couldn’t help (…)

Maraschino Honey
by angeliska on December 1, 2010
★ This interview with Patti Smith in Japan just rocks my world. She is so raw, and unafraid – totally unfiltered, totally high. This world needs more role models like her. “I might be 31 years old, but I’ve just (…)
Magic Windows #20
by angeliska on November 29, 2010
More Magic Windows photos from my New Orleans adventures: This house was decorated so wonderfully for Hallowe’en + Dia de los Muertos, I had to stop and gawp at it for a bit. I wonder who lives there? I like (…)
New Orleans Hallowe'en
by angeliska on November 18, 2010
Before too much time escapes through my glass, I must give you a little peepshow into the depraved and delightful scene that was our New Orleans Hallowe’en. It was actually a shockingly mellow night, aside from the total shitshow that (…)
