Keeping Shop at Soap this Saturday

Soap Gallery is usually closed on the weekends, but the owners have kindly allowed us to "keep shop" this Saturday afternoon. We'll be in the gallery from 4 – 7, so if you missed the Familiar Dreams opening this is a perfect time to say hello and check out the show. Soap is located at 3180 Mission, between Cesar Chavez and Valencia. Maybe swing by before grabbing dinner at Emmy's Spaghetti Shack, drinks at Argus, and/or dancing at the Knockout? You can guess what we'll be doing after we close up...

Many Thanks!

Thanks so much to everyone who came to our opening last night! We hope you had as much fun as we did. Extra-special thanks to SteveMac for playing records and to Lisa for inviting us to show at her gallery! If you weren't able to join us, we took plenty of photos which you can find here, here, and here.

Meet Us In Dreamland

Our show opens tonight! SteveMac will be djing, and Matthew will be playing records at Debaser following the show. If you're in the Bay Area we'd love to see you out!

Light and Magic

Less than one week to go until our opening! Here's a sneak peek at one of the four lightboxes we've been working on. More soon . . .

Still Dreaming

Still working away on our show! It's so much fun to see how the character of these portraits changes as the new backgrounds are filled in, and we've been amusing ourselves making up histories for all the folks in our little group. Sometimes there are clues in the portraits themselves—Niagara Falls was written on the back of the one above, which made us think they were perhaps honeymooners, even though their expressions are not especially joyful! Combined with the odd spotting on their faces, we decided the Honeymoon's Over for these two.

With our collection of bubble portraits almost done, we're starting on banners and prints. If anyone can guess what the letters below are going to spell, you get a prize . . .
