A moment for self reflection: The words "you're beautiful" are dissected for hidden meaning. They hang heavy in the air when you are desperate to hear them or fall short of your expectations when they are uttered.
I'm not going to get into a diatribe about how beauty standards are ridiculous, how consumerism is bad, how body image has been perverted etc, etc. I'm just going to admit that it's hard to take those two words (if you consider the contraction) seriously. It's even harder when you're told more explicitly "to me you're beautiful". At least that's how I've felt...
But I think I just got it. I love these creatures to bits. I have a very characteristic reaction to them and small things in general I'm told (read: babies, little woodland creatures, bugs, miniature versions of bigger flowers--you know what I'm talking about tiny daffodils). I love them so much and think they are so incredibly beautiful that I can't understand why other people don't. And yet, one of my closest friends is mortally afraid of them. She thinks they are disgusting and terrifying.
Huh, I think I just got what those words mean. Well I'll be...
In the shot. I asked Mark Porter to think of memories that where he couldn't of done anything different with outcome. To bring out the the self reflection in his body language.

The Indian Pond Heron or Paddybird (Ardeola grayii) is a small heron. It is of Old World origins, breeding in southern Iran and east to India, Burma, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. They are widespread and common but can be easily missed when they stalk prey at the edge of small water-bodies or even when they roost close to human habitations. They are however distinctive when they take off with bright white wings flashing in contrast to the cryptic streaked olive and brown colours of the body. Their camouflage is so excellent that they will close approach before taking to flight, a behaviour which has resulted in folk names and beliefs that the birds are short-sighted or blind.
They appear stocky with a short neck, short thick bill and buff-brown back. In summer, adults have long neck feathers. Its appearance is transformed from their dull colours when they take to flight, when the white of the wings makes them very prominent. It is very similar to the Squacco Heron, Ardeola ralloides, but is darker-backed. To the east of its range, it is replaced by the Chinese Pond Heron, Ardeola bacchus.
They are very silent but may give a harsh croak when flushed or near their nests.
They are very common in India, and are usually solitary foragers but numbers of them may sometimes feed in close proximity during the dry seasons when small wetlands have a high concentration of prey. They are semi-colonial breeders. They may also forage at garbage heaps. During dry seasons, they sometimes take to foraging on well watered lawns or even dry grassland. When foraging, they allow close approach and flush only at close range. They sometimes form communal roosts, often in avenue trees over busy urban areas.
The Indian Pond Heron's feeding habitat is marshy wetlands. They usually feed at the edge of ponds but make extensive use of floating vegetation such as Water hyacinth to access deeper water. They may also on occasion swim on water or fish from the air and land in deeper waters

Photo by Nathaniel Toledo 12': I really loved this shot of my reflection. I deviously angled the camera so that the camera would not be in the shot but would include me. The photo isn’t perfectly clear. It isn’t so definitive that it shows a specific emotion except the possibility of thought. This photo portrays my persona in the way that I am intellectual, that I am undecided, undeniable, and undecipherable.
A quick Pavilion project to start off my third year design studuio. I chose to design and develop a more privet space for my pavilion that is intedned to be used for medditation and self reflection; the pavilion is located in the new arbareatum at the university of idaho
Haven’t talked about anything new in a crazy way in kinda a while like nothing out of the blue blow me ot the water type beat like haven’t talked abt nothing mind boggling and fresh in a minute hm but the grass ain’t always green I guess plus if everything is a trade off I’d say other stuff is pretty darn good rn so I gues boring conversation and the asshole public is just the way it be . In Thailand talking to a plethora of backpackers they all like “where u from. Why r u in Thailand? For how long u staying? When did u get here? How long u been in this city? Then what? Why? Have h been here before? Other Asian countries before?” I mean tbh who wanna talk abt that cuz obv already everyone says the same thing . Gives me more respect for Micah the hitchhiker I chilled with for a week in highschool) He was no traveller, he was In Search For America. (New York to Frisco and back) Ya frick ppl who do stuff and talk abt it in a way like why i like when ppl nerd out and talk abt the specifics and their thoughts on it and stuff. The base is already implied so we don’t need to talk abt it. Anyways Thailand is the best place ever it’s perfect and sparkly and perfect everything it’s kinda the peak of humanity . The ideal way to life. Just since time does go forward tho they need to recycle Fr, theres so much trash on every beach and nook and cranny and so much plastic bags used for everything all the time like yo chill dawg . Mmmm Thai food mmmmm bugs mmmm the beach and monkeys and fruit and a big ol meal for 2$ drink included mmm yum ah wow la la la nuns are strange I’m glad I don’t live that playthrough of life Fr . Girls r fucked up people and now I’m scared even more than I already was. Like a true horror within fr. Like in the same spot as acid ptsd genuine fear. Like not active on the surface but u know it’s within and it’s active in ur subconscious more than you’d wish. Weird. What ever happened to morals and self discipline to stick to those morals and self reflection and stuff like damn and respect for others and yourself like damn. I love Thailand it’s so awesome even if travelers are boring af it’s okay . I also saw someone like Caleb T Maxwell I kinda regret not talking to him but after 5 soul sucking convos it ain’t easy to approach someone else . I’ll just imagine he said something new and what’s the word authentic yeah heh. imagine . 8:00 am rn on the dot wow. Three hours spent doing what?????????? Nothing !!! That’s chill. I like doing nothing sometimes . I don’t miss instagram or Flickr or my data or watching Snapchat stories . I’m fact it made me learn myself the cliche thing ppl used to always say like “don’t compare yourself to othera and that’s what social media does and it’s bad” and I was like nah it’s chill but like nah it ain’t chill no more so I’m glad I noticed that like tbh I don’t wanna know what new ski tricks and weird aesthetic y2k ski clips in fleece hats are being recorded rn . Can’t wait to have 5 friends and my truck and go to work and just chill. Kerouac : “cliches are truisms and truism are true.” Very true. Like. Ya. Like all of em. My Thai name is Gla Pao, meaning Basil Leaf. “You stir fry it with sweet chili’s and it tastes good” . So that’s pretty sick. Thai is such a good language , all the noises are so natural . Too bad I left my camera at the airport cuz I wanna post my sick videos of caterpillar smashing on here
I took two people I had never really hung out with before and went on a trip with them. It's a great way to get to know people. My picture is on the left, Dan Prior's is in the middle, and Jayna Holehouse's is on the right.

You used to be different. You used to be. You have lived in moments and silence and noise and change. You Used To Be A Spaceship. Five artists come together to compare and contrast the intricacies of self-reflection as they ask themselves (and you) what you've learned, how you got here, and what exactly you think you're doing?
Through the use of painting, illustration, and sculpture, the focus is on the definition of self, and the intimacy of specific details which play with the dichotomy of what is alien and what it shared. Your experiences have shaped you, and while they can't be shared completely perhaps there is common ground to walk on.
