Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:27:20 -0800 The Stranger http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/02/04/the-great-pet-protraits-more-of-zerrin-koch http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/02/04/the-great-pet-protraits-more-of-zerrin-koch Derek Erdman <p>I recently stumbled onto the work of <strong>Portland's Zerrin Koch</strong> through a friend. Koch makes a wide variety of things in a recognizable modern style, but it's her pet portraits that I fell hard for. She has a gift for allowing cute and serious to mingle in a way that avoids preciousness, and the resulting likenesses are spot-on. Oh, and her prices <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/121685801/personalized-custom-pet-portrait-8-x-11?">are really agreeable</a>. </p> <p><strong>Where are you from / where did you grow up?</strong></p> <p>I was born in Seattle and moved to Olympia around 1994/1995, when I was in the 4th grade. I lived there until I graduated from Evergreen in 2008 with a BA in "visual arts" (quotes because we don't have majors at Evergreen), and then decided to move down to Portland because it's where most of my friends and <a href="http://aidankoch.com/">sister</a> were living.</p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/binary/8e70/1360011407-stella_peeg_.jpg" alt="Stella Peeg" title="Stella Peeg" width="500" height="357" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Zerrin Koch</li><li class="imageCaption">Stella Peeg</li></ul></div></p> <p><strong>What pets did you have as a child? What pets do you have now?</strong></p> <p>I grew up with mostly cats. The first one I remember was Fonzie, then there was Beazus and Mina and Nuzzle. Then there was Snookie. Then there was my precious baby, Pootie, and then Nino and Nula. All of them have passed away now, except for Pootie and Nula, who live with my mom in Olympia (I feel too guilty to move Pootie to the big city when she has the Olympia countryside to roam.) I also grew up with Barred Rock and Araucana chickens, who can be hilarious, and we had a parakeet once which my dad named Larry Bird, but no one called him that. We had a rabbit or two, and <strong>a hamster named MC Hamster</strong> who was mean and we gave him away. And when I was really little, we had a sheltie named Bosco, who ran away all the time. But I'm a pretty big cat lady. Oh, and we raised two orphaned baby squirrels when I was in high school. I love animals.</p> <p><strong>What materials do you use to make your pet portraits?</strong></p> <p>I usually ask for an average of 3 good portrait quality photos to work from, then I sketch them out with a mechanical pencil onto 100% recycled bogus paper, after that I start drawing in more details and shape with a variety of Prismacolor colored pencils, I eventually add more color with some Windsor &amp; Newton watercolors, and then go back over with colored pencils.</p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/images/blogimages/2013/02/04/1360011448-dr_o_2_.jpg" alt="Doctor O" title="Doctor O" width="500" height="431" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Zerrin Koch</li><li class="imageCaption">Doctor O</li></ul></div></p> <p><strong>How many have you done so far?</strong></p> <p>I think I started painting animals a few years ago, and did practice portraits of animals I found on the internet. I've painted my cat a bunch of times, and have done quite a few more of friend's pets for presents. So for personal pet portraits, I've probably done a little over a dozen, and for non-personal pictures (like animals I thought were cute on the internet) maybe like 40 or something? I have <a href="http://fartprincess69.tumblr.com/">an art Tumblr</a> because <a href="http://zerrinkoch.tumblr.com/">the Tumblr I started for my art</a> got consumed by my Tumblr addiction. That's where I tried to put my good pictures of previous portraits, I didn't get a scanner or digital camera until last year, and was using my computer camera to take pictures.</p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/binary/4dd7/1360011495-pig_pig_.jpg" alt="Pig Pig" title="Pig Pig" width="500" height="365" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Zerrin Koch</li><li class="imageCaption">Pig Pig</li></ul></div></p> <p><strong>What do you like most about drawing people pets?</strong></p> <p>I think I love drawing pets because I love animals so much. I'm really awkward with people, but really comfortable with animals, plus having animals around, or talking about animals is a really good icebreaker. I like pet portraits because you get to talk to the owner of the animal about their pet and learn their pet's name and hear stories, and it's really fun. They're usually as passionate about their animal as I am. I'd imagine it's like having a baby. I've totally been working, and some co-workers and I have pulled out photos of our cats and just rambled about them for, like, 15 minutes instead of doing our job. Plus I really like drawing fur.</p> <p><strong>What do you like to listen to / watch while working on art?</strong></p> <p>When I'm working, I listen to a bunch of stuff. A lot of mix-tapes, records, stuff off my computer. I have a ton of weird 60's garage rock/rockabilly/pop stuff, like anything off of <a href="http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2009/02/lux-and-ivys-favorites-mp3s.html">Lux and Ivy's old radio show</a>, or songs that would be in a John Waters soundtrack. I also have a friend who hosts <a href="http://kboo.fm/ditchdigger">Ditch Digger Radio on KBOO</a> here in Portland. She also works at Mississippi Records and hooks me up with some amazing stuff. I also love me 80's early 90's stuff like the Ramones, the Smiths, Morrissey, the Cure, anything good, goth and synthy. Also, the Damned, Joy Division, New Order, the Misfits, Danzig, Alaska Y Los Pegamoides. Sometimes stuff from my 70's Bollywood collection. Lots of old lounge stuff. Opera. I think I listened to old J-Pop tapes I made when I was 13, when I did your portraits. I have a wide variety of tastes. I think I've listened to the song "Gidget Goes Hawaiian" by James Darren A LOT this week. I usually don't watch anything while painting because I can't concentrate as well. But that's what crocheting is for!</p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/binary/08d3/1360011584-yoshi.jpg" alt="Yoshi" title="Yoshi" width="500" height="667" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Zerrin Koch</li><li class="imageCaption">Yoshi</li></ul></div></p> <p><strong>Is art your main source of income? If not, what is?</strong></p> <p>I'm currently not employed, but I'm looking for a suitable job, and am living off my savings in the meantime. I'm also figuring out how to sell stuff online, like starting <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/ZerrinKochHandmade">my Etsy account</a>.</p> <p><strong>Do you have hobbies? If so, what are they?</strong></p> <p>I like to consider myself a crafter more than an artist. I think my whole life is a hobby. I do a lot of crocheted stuff, like purses, stuffed animal backpacks, stuffed animals, and imaginary taxidermy animal heads. I got really into shell art for a while, which led to a bean portrait of Bruce Springsteen, which remains unfinished because I ate the beans I was using. Pasta art. I love embroidery and using felt and sequins, someday I want to make a nudie suit. I love cooking. I took culinary classes for two years in high school. I used to make music, I was in an all girl, seven member rap group called Gyunyunyu and the Science Fun Station, and I had a midi synth pop solo project called Revolt and Virgina after that, which I started off by making songs that were based off of romance novels, then drifted to other songs. Iwant to get back into that. I listen to a lot of music, and watch a ton of TV shows and movies for someone who doesn't have the internet.</p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/images/blogimages/2013/02/04/1360011636-yoshimi.jpg" alt="Yoshimi" title="Yoshimi" width="500" height="442" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Derek Erdman</li><li class="imageCaption">Yoshimi</li></ul></div></p> <p><strong>What are your favorite foods?</strong></p> <p>This one is really difficult. Curries of various countries, pizza, burritos, sushi train, seafood, all veggies, most fruit, cheese, breakfast, eggs, pasta, avocados, everything.</p> <p><strong>What is better, Seattle or Portland?</strong></p> <p>I think both have their merits. I have a ton of friends and family in Seattle and love a lot of things about it. It's bigger and I think there's a wider variety of things to do. I actually consider moving there a lot, but I have panic attacks and get severe road rage over traffic. Portland is good in a lot of ways too. I feel like it's more spacious, and there are roses growing everywhere. Plus, no sales tax. you don't have to pump your own gas, but I feel like it's popularity at the moment is making it less unique and pushing out a lot of cool things, like condos where there used to be venues. I like Seattle for having <em>a get-up-and-go attitude</em>, and Portland for having <em>a I'm-sleeping-in-and-having-a-late-afternoon-breakfast kind of 'tude</em>. It's a constant battle!<br /><em><br />Thanks a lot, Zerrin Koch!</em></p> <p>[ <a href="http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/02/04/the-great-pet-protraits-more-of-zerrin-koch#comments">Comment on this story</a> ]</p> <p>[ <a href="http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Rss.xml?oid=15923834&amp;id=comments">Subscribe to the comments on this story</a> ]</p> Art http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/02/04/the-great-pet-protraits-more-of-zerrin-koch?show=comments#readerComments http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Rss.xml?oid=15923834&id=comments 4 The Great Pet Portraits (+ More) Of Zerrin Koch Stella Peeg Zerrin Koch Mon, 04 Feb 2013 13:10:42 -0800 The Stranger http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/02/03/jess-rees-show-poster-foreign-friends-at-hollow-earth-215 http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/02/03/jess-rees-show-poster-foreign-friends-at-hollow-earth-215 Derek Erdman <p>I recently acquired this excellent <strong>Stephanie</strong> poster, made by <a href="http://jessrees.com/">Jess Rees</a> for the 2012 CHBP:</p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/binary/ff0a/1359930727-steph.jpg" alt="Poster by Jess Rees" title="Poster by Jess Rees" width="500" height="500" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Derek Erdman</li><li class="imageCaption">Poster by Jess Rees</li></ul></div></p> <p>While looking through her online work, I found tons of other great designs.

Original musical landscapes are mixed live by <a href="http://www.kaykayandhisweatheredunderground.com">Kirk Huffman</a> (Kay Kay &amp; His Weathered Underground/Wild Orchid Children), which include material from Mad Decent's <a href="http://www.schlachthofbronx.com">Schlachthofbronx</a>. Sari Breznau (<a href="http://www.circuscontraption.com">Circus Contraption</a>) also contributes, and there&#8217;s a full band, with special guest New Orleans bounce artist <a href="http://vockah.com/fr_home.cfm">Vockah Redu</a>.</p> <p>10PM doors &#8211; 3AM close. <a href="http://fredwildliferefuge.com/secretshow">RSVP Required: HERE</a>. 128 Belmont Ave East, across from Captain Black&#8217;s. Picture yourself inside Andy Warhol&#8217;s balls staring off a cliff 500-feet high at a kaleidoscopic ocean, with aerial artists. Kirk Huffman and Chris Snell spoke:</p> <p><strong>What is this Fhysical Graffiti? There&#8217;s so much shit going on. Music, dancers, and visuals. What&#8217;s happening? Is it all a metaphor for sex?</strong></p> <p><em>Kirk</em>: Anything at any given time can be a metaphor for sex at FRED. I've had trouble explaining the evening to folks myself. I'll let Chris give you his grand idea breakdown, but I will say that you will be thoroughly entertained and in a way that is unlike anything going on in Seattle right now. Side note: this shit is ideal for psychedelics, just a heads up.</p> <p><em>Chris</em>: It's an enormous conceptual-art piece with visual, both painted and digital, music and dance elements all combined to create this experience we are calling Fhysical Graffiti. To put a cherry on top we brought bounce poster boy from New Orleans, internationally renowned artist/dancer, VOCKAH REDU. Dance and aerial artists include Liza Rose, Paris Original, Trojan Original, and Amy Clem, with choreography by Ellie Sandstrom, Liza Rose, Amy Clem, and Fae Phalen. Massive 60 x 20 projected visual wall designs and installations were create by Jonathan Womack.</p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/binary/a506/1359060930-fred3.jpg" alt="Fred3.jpg" title="" width="500" height="364" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Bruce Dugdale</li><li class="imageCaption"></li></ul></div></p> <p><strong>Kirk, for the show, you remix music from Schlachthofbronx (MIA producer). What&#8217;s it like? What was your process for it? Do you play live during the show with a full band? Or do you DJ it? </strong></p> <p><em>Kirk</em>: The Schlachthofbronx stuff, at least from my perspective on the tracks I remixed, incorporates elements of break, Miami bass and bounce, but there's heavy Calypso/Caribbean music influences, too, that give it its own uniqueness. I was given all the individual stems from the original sessions from Schlachthofbronx's <em>Carimbo</em> EP and chopped them up into new compositions and remixes. Sari Breznau and Scott MacPherson both wrote horn arrangements over a good deal of the remixes and play live with a band, including drummer, baritone sax, tenor/alto sax, tuba, trumpet and synths that play with the tracks.</p> <p>Basically, because the show is one long production that operates with lighting/visual/sound cues, I'm operating a large 90-minute ProTools session with click track sends to a headphone splitter for a couple band members vs. building the set each night with triggers in Traktor or Ableton.</p> <p><strong>How did you go about composing? What guidelines did Chris give you? </strong></p> <p>I composed from the raw files sent from Schlachthofbronx, and I added a lot of my own samples. On certain tracks, I added real bass, percussion, and keyboard elements. I composed the tracks in ProTools and then had them mixed by Elan Wright (Kung Foo Grip, Riff Raff, SOL) in Logic. There weren't a lot of guidelines going into the project, I remember at first that the project idea sounded really grandiose, but vague, too. As things progressed, Chris sent me a few tracks he liked as well as the Schlafchthofbronx material, a handful of Vockah's recordings to marinate on. A lot of the music was inspired by descriptive words we all used and whatever was going on with the visuals/dancers or horn lines.</p> <p><strong>Have you done this kind of remixing before?</strong></p> <p>The remixing and composing electronic music stuff I've been doing as a hobby on the side for a while, but have been involved with it a lot more recently since I spent 6 - 7 weeks last year in LA working with producers/songwriters who primarily work in this genre/medium. I was able to observe and pick up a lot of things that enabled the Fhysical Graffiti music to be produced more comfortably.</p> <p><strong>What is the difference between a &#8220;musical landscape&#8221; and a &#8220;song&#8221;?</strong></p> <p>Um, I don't know, one has trees and mountains and the other is just bummin' on the corner? I guess I think of musical landscapes as something Sergio Leone-sounding. Music made to enhance something visual rather than standing alone on its own.</p> <p><strong>At any point does anyone twirl from their teeth or hair? I went to the circus when I was a kid and a girl was twirling around on a rope by her mouth. It scared the shit out of me.</strong></p> <p>Yeah, the stuff the dancers are doing is fucking nuts. Pulleys, ropes 'n' harnesses, chandeliers. I keep saying, &#8220;Y&#8217;all are gonna hurt yourselves.&#8221; [<em>Laughs</em>]</p> <p><em>Fhysical Graffiti happens Friday and Saturday this weekend, and Fridays and Saturdays in February. 10PM doors.</em></p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/binary/3dbc/1359061054-fred2.jpg" alt="Fred2.jpg" title="" width="500" height="329" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Bruce Dugdale</li><li class="imageCaption"></li></ul></div></p> <p><div class="blogImageCenter" style="width:512px;"><img src="http://www.thestranger.com/images/blogimages/2013/01/24/1359061113-fred4.jpg" alt="Fred4.jpg" title="" width="500" height="355" /><ul><li class="imageCredit">Bruce Dugdale</li><li class="imageCaption"></li></ul></div></p> <p>[ <a href="http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/24/fhysical-graffiti-at-fred-wildlife-refuge#comments">Comment on this story</a> ]</p> <p>[ <a href="http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Rss.xml?oid=15829535&amp;id=comments">Subscribe to the comments on this story</a> ]</p> Art Mix http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/24/fhysical-graffiti-at-fred-wildlife-refuge?show=comments#readerComments http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Rss.xml?oid=15829535&id=comments 2 Fhysical Graffiti at FRED Wildlife Refuge Natalya Pemberton Thu, 24 Jan 2013 13:36:48 -0800 The Stranger http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/24/strong-female-leads-katie-kate-at-hugo-house http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/24/strong-female-leads-katie-kate-at-hugo-house Sean Jewell <p><iframe width="400" height="100" style="position: relative; display: block; width: 400px; height: 100px;" src="http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/v=2/album=3808931485/size=venti/bgcol=e79292/linkcol=070808/" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0"><a href="http://katiekate.bandcamp.com/album/flatland">Flatland by Katie Kate</a></iframe></p> <p>Back in February of 2011 I was lucky enough to catch a show titled <em>Brief Encounters</em> at the <strong><a href="http://hugohouse.org/event/2013/feb/strong-female-leads">Richard Hugo House</a></strong> on Capitol Hill. The show featured writers and musical acts on the same bill and prompted them to talk about brief encounters they'd had.</p> <p>Writers in residence at Hugo House debuted some poetry, and read short stories, <strong>Matthew Simmons</strong> who's next collection of short stories is due out in May 2013 (pre-order <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Happy-Rock-Matthew-Simmons/dp/0985035536/">here</a>) spoke so eloquently I can still see him standing at the podium. </p> <p>The musicians followed with brief sets. <strong>Jason Dodson </strong>(<strong>The Maldives</strong>) played a solo, sit down, acoustic set of new music (so fresh he brought the lyrics with him to read), <strong>Laura Love</strong> played her brand of folk/funk/bluegrass protest jams, and a then little more than local celebrity named <strong>Macklemore</strong> got up and did all of the above. He told a short story about waiting in line for a <strong>Kanye</strong> show in New Mexico, read some of his beat-meets-slam style poetry, then performed a set of songs he'd been working on.</p> <p>This coming February the prompt is <a href="http://hugohouse.org/event/2013/feb/strong-female-leads">Strong Female Leads</a>. On the bill is Seattle's own Bad Amazon <strong>Katie Kate</strong>, joining poet <strong>Arlene Kim</strong>, novelist <strong>Patricia Smith</strong>, and catoonist/zinester <strong>Kelly Froh</strong>, and if it's anything like the last Hugo House music-meets writing experiment, it's gonna be worth every penny. Seats are extremely limited in this place, but it's comfy, and comes highly recommended.</p> <p>Tickets<a href="http://www.strangertickets.com/location/3634167/richard-hugo-house"> here</a>.</p> <p>[ <a href="http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/24/strong-female-leads-katie-kate-at-hugo-house#comments">Comment on this story</a> ]</p> <p>[ <a href="http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Rss.xml?oid=15786192&amp;id=comments">Subscribe to the comments on this story</a> ]</p> Art Upcoming 206 http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/24/strong-female-leads-katie-kate-at-hugo-house?show=comments#readerComments http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Rss.xml?oid=15786192&id=comments 0 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 10:27:49 -0800 The Stranger http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/18/party-vibes-election-night-edition http://lineout.thestranger.com/lineout/archives/2013/01/18/party-vibes-election-night-edition C.M.
