20 July 2011 The T D D TEAM

Hello, hello and hello. We’ve all sure to have spoken on the phone, met in the shop or at least emailed by this time but now we will have a true introduction. First up is Abi. She’s the Director, the brains and the brawn behind our little mix. Brittney not only manages the collections but also plays a mean air guitar, and I (Kathryn) don’t know what the hell I’m doing. It was a catalogue photoshoot gone very bad. Alainnah is our amazing online sales assistant and Beth (not pictured as she seems to be working on non-camera days) is Abi’s political advisor and multi tasker.

19 July 2011 Miranda July EBAY Auction

miranda_july_pillowcase-3_medium

This is it. The very last one available ever available. As we have had so many people making enquiries for this edition by Miranda July, we have decided an Ebay auction is the best way of sharing a little love.

It is not about the money either, as Third Drawer Down will be donating 100% of this auction to The Indigenous Literacy Foundation. This foundation aims to raise literacy levels and improve the lives and opportunities of Indigenous Australians living in remote and isolated regions. Can you imagine not being able to read a newspaper, a road sign or directions on a bottle of medication? Sadly, this is a reality faced by many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders living in remote communities today.

05 July 2011 Manon van Kouswijk

Manon
In her latest work Dutch artist Manon van Kouswijk explores the idea of a strand of beads as a cycle without a clear beginning or end. Her artist book “Hanging Around / the pearlchain principle” shows that the basic principle of the beaded necklace can be found in sources ranging from peas in a pod and mathematics to Supernova 1987A, described by scientists as ‘pearls on a cosmic necklace'
EXHIBITION DETAILS: 5 – 30 July 2011

Gallery opening hours: 11am – 5pm Tuesday to Friday, 11am – 4pm Saturday

Surfing through things today I found this very cool site called Work.Place out of Portland, Oregon (have to get there one day) and thought I would share an interview with Evan B Harris. We have worked with Evan a couple of times and think he is so ace –

01 June 2011 Play Today

Space_Ship_Playground

This weeks newsletter is all about play. We’ve been thinking of play a lot after hearing about the Collingwood skipping club, and I realized that is has been a far while since I’ve skipped. What is wrong with me? when I fall over now, I’m not embarrassed, or hurt, I’m just confused. ‘how is it that I, A full fledged Adult is still capable of tripping on this sidewalk? what is this red stuff coming out of my knee and how am I going to cover up my ripped leggings at work all day?’ I have decided that play has fallen below my usual set of priorities, and this will change. Skipping with abandon will be a daily occurance, and most likely so will tripping and hurting myself.
