JOSH SLATER: Electric Mantra
Nov 8, 2015 - Jan 17, 2016

Hey Kristen,
These are thoughts that pop into my head when I think of what influenced the new work:
-A new paint job on an old car
-The movement of a Paul Sharits film
-Looking at something through the cracks in your fingers
-The bright colors of a new plastic toy
-Native American picture writing
-A long walk past abandoned buildings in an old industry town
-The writing of Ram Dass
-A found VHS tape
-The music of "Offering" by JK FLESH, "L.T.D. (Life, Truth & Death)" by Jimmy Castor Bunch, "Reggae Reggae" by The Real Kids, "Two Winters Long" by Irma Thomas
-Half remembered memories
