DREAMs - Bad art, black lace and flying saucers
I was helping jury an art show. I'm not sure where it was, but it seemed like a hybrid of a Denver co-op-ish alternative gallery, a student union gallery, maybe Kingsfoot, and who else knows what. Most of the stuff was small, awful craftsy shit. We were having a hard time deciding what to put in the show because most of it was so bad. I asked the person in charge how we were going to fill up the walls because of the lack of work and she said that they were also going to bring in a juried middle school show. Cough. I remember picking up a lot of the art which was on coffee tables near chairs arranged in the gallery. Most of it was like pictures of family members in small frames. It was ghastly. Then there was one piece that was really awful, but intentionally so...bad matte job, bad subject matter. You could tell the person was trying to make a conscious statement about bad art in an ironic sense, but it was so shallow, that I rejected that piece too.
I was wearing a really naughty black lace cat suit and making love with Stan. It was quite a nasty dream.
It was at night and I was outside, somewhere on East Washington Ave. in the median, more east of our house (I dream a lot about this location...I have no idea why) I was on top of a parked car, looking up at the sky. There was this very strange flattish conical object in the sky, sort of like one of those straw hats you see pictures of people wearing in rice fields in Asia. It was floating downwards toward earth. I saw it land somewhere over by where we live and it left a small amount of smoke in the air after it fell. Then there was another object in the sky, definitely a flying saucer. It was sort of like a cliched flying saucer shape, all the requisite attributes one would see if one were to see one. Sort of like the flying saucer in the beginning of Velvet Goldmine. I kept thinking, 'they're going to think I'm nuts if I say I saw a flying saucer, but this is really what I'm seeing.'
