OLD. & N E W of it

the old

artist magical complete creative being...  Peter Shire

i met Peter when I  was in my 20's infatuated with the world of all things A R T

bought his wares for a gallery I owned with 3 beautiful women  the beginning of curiously curated stuff all crafted by the 4 of us 

a time that was free and open  a new thought 

  a mother and wife tied to tradition of how I was raised

living in a time of change going to school playing house making art making stuff

stirring the pot of what if's a sponge for knowledge a thousand questions

the new

Kim Hastreiter is an American journalist, editor, publisher, and curator who co-founded Paper magazine.

my friend Ryan invited me to listen to Kim Hastreiter talk about her book STUFF

"I am a fanatical collector and curator of “stuff” and have always cared about my everyday choices to the point of insanity. My taste for everything I surround myself with ranges from the sublime to the ridiculous. I view shopping as an editing challenge and apply the same intensity to my purchases and at the supermarket or on eBay as I do when I edit stories or magazines."

you know that got my attention..... me and my stuff my shop filled with stuff my home my drawers..stuff

and now i need to weed my stuff how I am having a  difficult time what will i do with all of my stuff. Pergolina's stuff

I am ready to go back to the old. the questioning back to art back to the creatives that tickle my fancy with their whimsy and bring it back to www.pergolina.com

filled with more stuff 

i've been influenced by these 2 and many more and i say thank you for  opening my eyes for the what ifs why not
