WEAVE ME AWONE!

HEY, GANG, I'M LEARNING HOW TO WEAVE! IT'S SURPRISINGLY EASY AND FUN. EVERYBODY SHOULD TRY IT!

I AM IN A GALLERY SHOW...

Yes, it's true. I have a piece in a show in Indianapolis. It is curated by the amazing genius that is Richard Saja. It's called "Replanting the Garden" and it's all about re-interpreting Bosch's masterpiece, "The Garden of Earthly Delights". This was definitely a challenge considering the fact that when it comes to my Manbroideries, I have a certain style that, although thematically may be reminiscent of old Heironymous, is most definitely pretty different. So, instead of trying to replicate a portion of this great work, I decided to create something that was "modern" and called attention to the fact that most assholes today have never seen or even heard of the piece. Therefore, the jerk-off in my piece is very confused about what is going on. I hope you enjoy his stupidity as much as I enjoyed creating him. -Your Pal, Johnny Murder
