The next big project happened

so rad.

last time i posted a hinindar video i talked about how amazing i think steve sloane is. i received hate mail for that post so… just watch the video and appreciate for yourself.

this dude rules.

the bars are a little long for my taste but this thing is rad.

p.s. next big project is a motorcycle 

no, that isn’t my hand. calm down.

I’m going to get a tattoo this week. it won’t be on my hand, but a Philly tattoo has to happen before I leave. I could care less how stupid anyone thinks it is, this exchange has been one of the best experiences of my life and I love this city and all of the people I’ve met here so much.

for the people who know me really well, my semi-secret life long love of dance is nothing new, but it is something i haven’t brought up on my Tumblr before.

one of my friends here in Philly is named Jon Priester and he made this really amazing piece for his senior choreography. he’s fairly shy and hasn’t shown it to anyone, the only reason i got to see it was because i wasn’t in town for the performance. i’m pretty sure he hasn’t shown any of his friends or anything because the video only had 14 plays when i watched it.

I think you should all watch this. it is really incredible.

So I got an email last night and the first part of it looked like this:

Hello Matt!

First of all, thank you for forwarding a selection of your works to be considered by the curatorial committee for Art With Heart in support of Toronto’s Casey House. I’m happy to report that the committee has selected This Changes Everything for inclusion in the auction’s select Emerging Artist section.

Artist: Matt Moreland
Title: This Changes Everything
Date: 2011
Medium: Digital C-Print
Size: 20 x 20

So that means that I’m going to be in one of the biggest Canadian art auctions this summer in the emerging artist category. This is kind of a huge deal because the curators for the auction are a bunch of huge names within the Toronto art community. I am so excited for this!

 I’m also really glad that Vanessa talked me into submitting my work when I originally considered not submitting. I was so nervous and the idea of having my early work shown to a bunch of important curators sounded so terrifying.

So big thanks to Vanessa, you rule!

The best part is, I already have this piece framed from one of the exhibitions I just had in Philly. 

This is all so great! I’m so excited for everything that’s coming over the next few months!
