LIVE

Today is the very last day of Shadow Tender’s Indiegogo campaign. I am SO FULL of gratitude for everyone who has supported us so far, and excitement for the time of intense creation we are about to launch into!
If you like monsters, creatures, or amazing costumes, if you like dance, or circus arts, or martial arts, if you think people should meet themselves or others with more compassion, or if you think psychology, neuroscience, or alchemy are as interesting as I do, please consider donating or sharing our link (in my bio!). This is our LAST BIG PUSH, and every little bit counts!

What is the Jungian Shadow, anyway, and why is it relevant? Here is a short new video of Shadow Tender’s artistic director, Natasha Kolosowsky, explaining & contextualizing these things + some art and dancing.

In brief, it’s a performance and workshop series that asks how humans create and interact with the monstrous within ourselves and in others, and seeks to provide the tools and inspiration to meet our shadows with compassion rather than fear, shame, or rejection.  We’re examining these ideas through the lens of fantasy, theater, wearable sculpture, and movement, with inspiration ranging from neuroscience to alchemical philosophy. We’ve been invited to perform and teach at the World Stage Design festival this July in Taiwan, Taipei - one of the largest international performance design festivals in the world!  But we’ll need your help to get there!  We’re only about 26% of the way to our funding goal, and we only have a few days left of our crowdfunding campaign!

Enjoy and please feel free to share <3

I can’t imagine a project I would be more excited to work on right now. This is one of the largest projects I’ve ever tackled, and what I truly want my art to achieve: using the transformative magic of costumes and movement to help people understand more about themselves and even find the tools to interact more healthily with each other.

I’m working with some of the most talented artists and performers I know, but even as excited and determined as we are, we’re not going to be able to do this alone. Please take a moment to watch our video and check out our campaign. If you can contribute we’d be forever grateful, but you can help us succeed just by spreading the word. Do you know anyone who likes any of the things in that first sentence? Share this with them!

It’s Spectacle’s birthday. National popcorn day! January 19

“No one spawns outside of an AU after all.” -Spectacle

“I do think you need sleep if you’re asking me stuff like that.” -Spectacle

“Of course, it’s popcorn pizza. Who the heckie do you think I am??” -Spectacle


He never had pizza before by the way. Never will probably. Until he finds someone who’s willing to make him a popcorn pizza. :’)

Just a casual sketch. :)

[*I promise, he knows what he’s doing.]


Spectacle pulling pranks with Halloween by dressing up as people and then bother them.
