“Act Like You’re Fine” a group show in Tokyo, Japan
“Act Like You’re Fine” deals with the things that consume us with obsession to the point of losing our self control - the things that drive us to passionate madness, behavior we don’t recognize, frantic devotion - the feeling that we are not the rider, but are being ridden.
Participating artists are:
Leigh Ledare
Slava Mogutin
Andrea Longacre-White
Michael Stipe
Matthu Placek
A.L. Steiner
Lola Dupre
Devin Elijah
Neal Franc
Sophie Morner
and Patrick Hoelck
From lovers to horses, and from internet trysts to the architecture of corners in rooms, all the work in the show is photography based, but includes sculpture, collage, and video pieces.

Stillness Of The Mind - Abel Korzeniowski
This beautifully composed song is from the wonderful soundtrack of A Single Man. This strikes the right mood with me. It’s moving, emotional, and epic. Reminds me of Clint Mansell’s compositions especially from The Fountain, the beautiful violin which evokes a plethora of emotions. Sadness, love, fear, passion, calm. This song calms my mind, as the title suggest, it puts my mind at a standstill, where I can stop take a breather and look at the world around me with open eyes. The stillness of the mind is the state we are in most of the time, our minds stay constant with us our entire lives, the world and the mind are on two different planes of existence. Yes, the mind and the world, interact with each other, but ultimately our world is a hectic place with so many things going on at once it’s sometimes difficult to realize the complexities of the world around us. Everybody’s mind is a different world, each individual sees the world with different eyes, with different perceptions, with different opinions. Abel Korzeniowski is seriously becoming one of my new favorite composers, his ability to make his music so deep is mesmerizing. I can’t wait to hear more music by him in future films.
“A few times in my life I’ve had moments of absolute clarity, when for a few brief seconds the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think, and things seem so sharp and the world seems so fresh. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I have lived my life on these moments. They pull me back to the present, and I realize that everything is exactly the way it was meant to be.” -A Single Man
