MANEATER: Aurel Schmidt...








25yrs old originally from Kamloops, British Columbia with little or no discipline at all "somewhere between hippy idealism and redneck reality" she was a "teenage slut in gold hoop earrings and hot pants blacking out at bonfire parties in the woods". So... inspired by someone from Vancouver, they taught her that being technically brilliant with a pencil wasn't lame; that you can be punk with a precise pencil just as much as with a sloppy brush or with a camera and a penis... She made her way to the mean streets of NYC(chinatown). This is a book with all rights reserved to Deitch Projects copyright 2008, collaborative efforts by O.H.W.O.W; These are her works mostly on archival paper and her visual cries for attention/help. If your into detailed pencil drawings/work... this is dope.
