Drawn Shirts, Two Cafes in Belfast
Two drawn shirts from last autumn in Belfast — one drawn in Linen Hall Library’s cafe, the other Clements on Botanic Avenue. Thanks to Julia and Johanna’s Miriam for the shirt bases; the drawing was with a black fabric marker, set with heat. They are up for sale on Etsy now, with some sadness.

Profile in Headphones
Upon Bandwidth Will’s request, for stickering around Belfast. It’s set me on a hair-drawing kick that will likely last for a few weeks. Time for giant-haired profiles to be screenprinted across skirts + bags!

Joby Fox: Belfast in Braddock
Mairead and I were coffeeing on Botanic Avenue this past June in South Belfast, and a man asked if he could join our table on the street. He turned out to be Joby Fox, a member of the 80s-90s Northern Irish band Energy Orchard, and they had shot the music video for their single “Sailor Town” in where else? Braddock, Pennsylvania.
So we recorded an impromptu reminiscence session right there at Clements, Mairead on audio, me on video. And “Sailor Town”, you can see it woven into the interview, or in its completeness here. You can see Joby in his 1990 version, in the thumbnail gallery above or on the right in the video. And his website is here.

Monster Litter from Belfast, Holylands
I sold most of these monsters at the Belfast and Dublin shows back in June, and I never properly documented them before they left me. A lot of them were pocket sized, made out of QFT Lost & Found hats and scarves. Others were from huge bags of underused clothing that students had left piled up in front of their Holylands doors when the school year ended. I had to tell passersby that I was an art student when they shot me ‘Why are You Going Through Abandoned Bags of Clothes’ looks. One day, I hope, I will not even register those looks.
