coffee stain universe



Coffee stain universe: when you are in a psyche ward, there’s nothing to do but drink tea or coffee. That is your universe. It is hard. It is painful. It is constraining. To stop yourself losing your dreams and hopes, you create stars out of anything, including coffee stains to shine upon you.

Urban Art Fair 2010

On Saturday I helped out the Urban Art Fair in Brixton, South London, doing basic stewarding duties, looking after the artists, pointing people to the toilets, watching armed police chase a suspect, and listen to an eccentric man talking about pimps in his flowers.

But the best quote of the day goes to one of the artists, who said: 'I have to balance what people want to put up in their kitchen and nurturing the darkness of my soul.'
