The Great Jason Villegas Giveaway!

I couldn’t be more stoked to announce the following news: in honor of today’s interview with Jason Villegas, he’s created an original art piece exclusively for Future Shipwreck, and we’ll be giving it away to one lucky reader! The piece is entitled Lil’ Stink Eye, and it’s a lovingly handmade fabric sculpture that playfully expands upon Jason’s thematic obsessions with the Lacoste alligator and tanks.

Jason’s artwork has been shown from coast to coast in rad galleries like Okay Mountain and esteemed institutions like LACMA. This might be your only chance to take home one of his completely unique art pieces! All you have to do is leave a comment on this post or on the Future Shipwreck Facebook page (both to increase your chances) before Thursday, October 28th at midnight! We’ll choose one lucky a winner at random and announce their name here on Friday morning!

From Exceptional Encounters
by Paula Winkler

As a photographer and as a woman I miss the heterosexual gaze on the male body. I enjoy challenging the balance of power of the male gaze and the female object and let the men become my object of desire. For this reason I only work with heterosexual men that react to me as a female photographer.

Author (Written For the Wind), 2009
by Futoshi Miyagi

I decided to write an autobiography. But it’s been only 20-something years.

I tried to write down the oldest memories I could remember. There were some, but I was never sure if they are my own memories, or something that someone told me, or something I constructed from photographic memories. Maybe things gotten mixed up with stories and fictions I have read/saw in my life. I tried to undo the memories to weave out one coherent history. No matter how hard I tried, the time-line is confused, and new anecdotes pop up all the time, ones that I couldn’t connect to others, they stayed within me, while refusing to be a part of the whole.

The story got further and further away from the reality or what I thought to be real, and the writing turned into cheap melodrama. It was unoriginal and mediocre. Feeling stupid, I decided to make up an epilogue, a story that is a total fake, then let the wind take the entire story. The unnumbered pages, the fragments of my life, are scattered. If someone picks up a page and read a line or two, that would be nice.
