Ray at Night / Saturday September 13
Art Produce Gallery presents
Urban Detritus / Pigment on surface
Paintings by Josh Flood as KAI ONE.
If you are in San Diego, do not miss the opening reception and performance with Kai One and Kevin Freitas, I think it will be extremely interesting!
September 13, from 6 to 9pm. Performance begins at 7pm.
In July 2008, Kai One posted an amazing article in Art As Authority titled "Avoiding Catatonic Surrender".
[...] "I suddenly stopped at a rusted red oxide CNW boxcar and had my first ever epiphany in graffiti. It was awakened inside me by a simple line drawing made with white paint stick. It was a picture of a man with a cowboy hat and had a caption underneath that read “Avoiding Catatonic Surrender”. Suddenly everything made sense. When people would ask why I wrote my name over and over again like a simple child I had the perfect answer: avoiding catatonic surrender. Suddenly my life was okay for a brief moment and all the frustrations and disappointments of real life slipped away as we walked over the jagged rocks and breathed in the dank air. I felt the beads of sweat drip down my face and as I got back into my car I knew that I would never be the same ever again. I asked my little buddy if he knew who did the Avoiding Catatonic Surrender drawing and he said it was The Colossus of Roads."[...]
