Ouch My Eye is not only a creative working space but a community space and an idea where creative expression
no longer needs to be a passive message held hostage by gallery commissions and industry slight of hand.
The idea is that $ and art rarely meet, creative thoughts should be immune to clever marketing schemes and parasitic trends.

In a grander scheme these ideas transcend the "art" world. Online we are hoping to not only communicate these ideas but also, assist in our desire for a broader creative community and collaborations. Who is an "artist" and who isn't. We think anyone with a message makes a bigger, bolder statement then Dale Chihuly.

We Rep. everyone and no one...There are no "professionals" we are all just people, doing what we do...Without a creative community ideas remain ideas, like bottles of Jaeger sitting warm without glasses...So let us be your shot glass.

Any and all "artists" are welcome to submit to shows, volunteer your skills, donate time and raise your finger to the establishment. Be the fly in the ointment.

More than that, we are always looking for people that not only want to keep this idea a reality but also evolve into something increasingly difficult to define. A great many things happen from an Artist Call to a Show Strike, if you have some free time and want to be involved give us a ring, drop an email or swing by the space and have a drink with us.

Something more passive?...
Why not post our show listings around on the net or in the real world, check out the links on individual show pages and go nuts...it's all you!
