I have been working in partnership with Toth + Co. to bring to life the Feel Good Project: an initiative that aims to make people feel good by spreading artwork that promotes an optimistic outlook on life.
On Wednesday May 15th we went down to the memorial site at Copley square to hang a large, hand sewn banner that reads “FEEL BETTER.” Along with the banner we handed out over 100 small pins with the same text. We felt it was important to kick off this project by responding to our local community, to say we are here for you, we love you, and even when things are bad there is still a lot of good in the world.
To follow the Feel Good Project, get involved, or share ideas follow our tumblr here.
A big thanks to Ali Donohue for shooting these photos and taking some video footage.
Romance.
There is a couple making out outside my studio window and Scout is barking at them.

Motor City Kitty: FULL CALL-OUT TO CANCEL RACHEL IVEY'S SPEAKING DATES
According to the dates listed this is happening at the Democracy Center, which seems kind of out of line with a lot of other things that happen in that space (Smash it Dead Fest, for one thing). I don’t really know how or who to talk to about this not happening. But- It shouldn’t. Fuck this company.
PLEASE REPOST
Please email and call these spaces and let them know that you are unhappy that they are allowing Rachel Ivey of Deep Green Resistance to speak at their space as part of the Resistance Rewritten speaking tour. Rachel Ivey considers trans women to be men;…
This is still how I feel about pretty much everything.
Hey Buddies. My friend is looking for a cat sitter for the next two months with a possible transition into a new home for Nosfy, the pretty little kitty shown above. He is best as the only pet, is super friendly with people, and very scared of dogs. I used to cat sit Nosfy and he loves to cuddle and play: an all around good dude to hang out with. You can click through to find more info about him here. He is looking for a home in Jamaica Plain, if possible.
Friday May 10th from 7:00pm-10:00pm I am having an opening for MISSING EVERYONE: a would-be-thesis-show of a whole bunch of work I have been making over the last two years & to celebrate finishing up my senior year in the Fibers department at MassArt. The show is in my studio at 362 Broadway in Cambridge. There will be some light snacks, and a bunch of things to look at. Please stop by and say hi! If you need directions or have any questions please feel free to email me at chelsea.dirck@gmail.com
Because this is my personal studio and not a public space, the show will not be open for viewing with regular hours like a gallery. I will, however, be in my studio during the day on Saturday and Sunday with the door open if anyone who can’t make it on Friday would like to stop by and check it out.
