The final step was the first step. its been two weeks since the show it was amazing. My piece had its own lil part of the wall. Everyones art was beautiful, alive, and flowing. The vibes were immaculate. So many people I knew online were there, and meeting them was such an out of body experience. Like there’s actually ppl behind the pixels?? wild. There was a lil table some canvases that a bunch of ppl started doodling on, a lil bar/food area, digital displays, a cool lil middle room, a dude who made pancakes that look liked pals art, and blunts on blunts (i don’t smoke bc i will b counting floor tiles for an hour but the vibe was top tier lmao). and the best part - nobody hated me at first? its almost like the stories i made up in my head were based on absolutely nothing?? Id even say we all vibes out and it was too fun?? will b making up more stories in my head ofc but this one was thankfully proven false :’) its been amazing seeing everyone, and the love in the room was nearly tangible.
