WOW!
So we have neglected the blog for a couple of days, YUME is always busy and so are its many members. But we figured we'd take the time to write an apology blog. So we have made it back to NYC we were in a few different places but NEW ORLEANS was by far one of the most important stops. Politics, Art, Fashion, Music, and Community were all important things on the agenda.
As we catch our breath make sure you stop by Thursday December 18th for THE WRITER'S BLOCK event which will be taking place at THE BOWERY POETRY CLUB, Where YUME's DJ CHARLIE BROWNE will be breaking down the 1s and 2s alongside MELO - X.
FYI : THERE WILL BE NO YUME NEW YEARS PARTY THIS YEAR, we have decided to prepare for the New Year in a different fashion, but we do look forward to seeing you guys in the coming year.
YOU MAY (YUME)

- Secret Key to the Heart Sutra by Kukai, Founder of Japanese Shingon Buddhism
“This show is the fruit of numerous all-night-till-the-sun-rise painting sessions of the last two months, many of them spent with fellow artists who labored with me, kept me inspired and helped me to sharpen my vision. Taking the Japanese samurai and ninja tradition as a visual reference, I have tried to illustrate a number of spiritual concepts I have been meditating on for years and place them in a dreamlike setting of love and chivalry. I also wanted to make this solo show into an opportunity to honor my friends -my Brooklyn fam- by inviting them to be part of this fantasy heartland of lovers and secret monk-warriors that we created as we were preparing for the show.” Lichiban
