Wandering around the city centre on St Patrick’s day, you’ll meet many diverse fun fashion statements to say the least… classy greens, sassy golds and demure nods to patriotism as people roll out in their Sunday best, while others parade full-on costumes ranging from the adventurous to the really out there ! (And that’s not including the official parade!)
This Paddy’s Day, we’re celebrating street fashion on a day of eclectic Irish fashion!
The National Leprechaun Museum and the SCOOP foundation joined up to give everyone (Dubliners and visitors) the chance to show off their Paddy’s Day Finery to the whole world, and set up a picture-book-photo-booth for them to get snapped in!
Entrants got snapped by our photographers on our set and then posted online… winners will be voted on by a worldwide audience! (There’s a range of categories and spot prizes to be won!)
Let us know your favourite by tweeting about it #lookoftheirish!

Biography & Artist Statement:
Wendy Mann was born in Medford, Oregon in 1953. She received her BA and teaching credential from San Jose State University in 1977. In 1986 she returned to school to study Photography at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, where she earned a BFA in 1989. For the last 17 years she has taught photography at both the Academy of Art University and City College of San Francisco. Courses taught ranged from traditional analog black and white photography to current digital classes. She now resides and works in Los Gatos, CA. Her current work includes conceptual still life images, architectural photography and landscape imagery. She has exhibited her work at Santa Cruz Mountains Art Center in Ben Lomond, CA and in group shows with the Mountain Art Guild in Los Gatos, CA and at the Triton Museum in Santa Clara, CA.
The following quote by photographer Keith Carter encapsulates my philosophy about photography.
"I don't just look at the thing itself or at the reality itself; I look around the edges for those little askew moments-kind of like what makes up our lives- those slightly awkward, lovely moments."
When I am making photographs, I endeavor to absorb my surroundings and tune in to how my state of mind and my memories affect the existing elements; and how they all work together to produce my work.
CCSF Photography and You:
I first took a photography class at CCSF in 1982. It was Beginning Black & White Photography. This was the impetus for me to further my studies in photography. After completing my degree and working as a commercial photographer for a few years, I began working at CCSF as a part time instructor in 1997.
Over the past 15 years I have looked at CCSF Photography Department and fellow colleagues as my second family. I made several life-long friends in both my colleagues and former students. I was also able to continue to learn more about photography and its changing role in the photography world.
A complete interior and exterior decoration project, divided into three lines of surfaces, all different statements of the combination of matter and design.
Twelve seductive finishes, as soft to the touch as they are to the eye, transformed into soft coconut mats, textures engraved with a diamond tip, matt metal or slabs in a single colour in damier motifs.
Un progetto completo per la decorazione d'interni ed esterni, articolato in tre gamme di superfici, differenti declinazioni del binomio materia-design.
Dodici sensuali finiture che, al tatto come allo sguardo, diventano morbide stuoie in fibra di cocco, texture incise a punta di diamante, metallo satinato o lastre monocromatiche in motivi damier.

Absolutely inspired by this photograph which is just completely fantastic! [However, I purposely didn't try to exactly recreate it as I am not such a fan of photographers doing that.] Rather, I decided to put my own spin on it!
From this session.

ARTIST STATEMENT:
I create bodies of work that explore subjects such as gender, artifice, and spectacle. Utilizing processes ranging from directorial to curatorial to anthropological, I showcase exuberantly irrepressible personalities who revel in challenging clichés associated with constructs such "masculinity" and "femininity". A sampling of subjects include Girls Girls Girls (the world's first and only all-female Mötley Crüe tribute band), Tazzie Colomb (the world's longest competing female bodybuilder), and LACTIC Incorporated (an avant-garde clothing brand that takes the detritus of corporate life and reinterprets it into one-of-a-kind structural garments that challenge the polarization of gender).
With this current and ongoing project "Life is Drag", I am documenting the most innovative and singular performers of the currently exploding international alt-drag and neo-burlesque scenes. I am 3 years into this project, and so far have created 250+ portraits. These are created in my studio as well as during residencies - in New York City (The Cell Theater, Bushwig), Pittsburgh (The Kelly Strayhorn Theater, Blue Moon Bar, Bloomfield Garden Club), and New England (3S Artspace).
This project began in early 2019 in my studio in Brooklyn, when I collaborated with a local visual artist by the name of Untitled Queen - a deeply beloved, highly respected, and uniquely visionary performer and conduit within the NYC drag scene who uses drag as a part and extension of her artistic process. I then worked with selected performers from Ohio and Kentucky in conjunction with a mid-career retrospective in my hometown of Cincinnati in the spring of 2019, and in January and February of 2020, I worked with 20+ New England-based drag artists as part of a residency and exhibition at 3S Artspace in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
From the autumn of 2020 until the summer of 2021, I was an artist in residence at The Cell Theatre in the Chelsea neighborhood of NYC, where I expanded the project in the midst of the pandemic to also include neo-burlesque performers and performance artists whose work deals specifically with gender performativity. Most recently was a residency in my hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio - which included creating video portraits of performers from the drag haus ODD Presents, members of the neo-burlesque troop Smoke & Queers, and other alt-drag and burlesque artists from the tri-state area. This residency also included an exhibition featuring this ever-growing archive, as well as multiple live performance events.
My long-term goal is to continue to do a series of such residencies nationally and internationally, which will allow me to create a comprehensive archive of video portraits of drag, burlesque and performance artists from a wide range of locations, backgrounds, cultures, and ages. Each portrait includes video of the artist performing (lip-synching, singing, telling stories, reciting monologues, dancing, etc.) in addition to interview documentation, and will live online as well as in galleries and unexpected places in between. "Life is Drag" has so far been exhibited at such venues as the the Carnegie Museum of Art and Bunker Projects (PA), Satellite Art Club, Bushwig and The Cell (NYC), 3S Artspace (NH), and the Weston Art Gallery (OH).
I believe this project is innovative and important in that it is treating and respecting "drag" (defined as broadly and inclusively as possible) as a proper art form – recognizing it as an extremely vital and valid style of performance art, and every bit as deserving of the deference reserved for more traditional classical art forms like painting and sculpture. Drag is painting and sculpture and performance all at once - and quite often also activism, education, protest, therapy, resistance, catharsis, comedy, tragedy, enlightenment, inspiration - or some combination of the above - to those who practice it, and also to those who experience it as an observer. This project is about celebrating this experimental and expansive form of art and its wide range of practitioners and manifestations. It is about creating a record - an archive - of these brilliant but ephemeral performances, from dive bars to art galleries, city streets to grand theater stages. It is about trying to properly document and share these wildly diverse acts and profound stories that will surely open minds and capture hearts.

Says: "Foucault is gay"
Graffitti Njalsgade
Michel Foucault (French pronunciation: [miʃɛl fuko]) (15 October 1926 – 25 June 1984) was a French philosopher and historian. He held a chair at the Collège de France with the title "History of Systems of Thought," and also taught at the University of California, Berkeley.
Foucault is best known for his critical studies of social institutions, most notably psychiatry, medicine, the human sciences, and the prison system, as well as for his work on the history of human sexuality. Foucault's work on power, and the relationships among power, knowledge, and discourse has been widely discussed. In the 1960s Foucault was often associated with the structuralist movement. Foucault later distanced himself from structuralism. While Foucault is typically characterized as a post-structuralist and postmodernist, he personally rejected the postmodernist and post-structuralist labels, preferring to classify his thought as a critical history of modernity, rooted in Kant.[1]

Well what can I say...this was totally amazing. Thanks to Adrian and Villip at Audio Excellence in Markham for letting us listen. The problem is I am ruined for life, nothing I will ever have will compare to this. I guess there is always the hope of a lottery win. For more info follow the link below.
