Cigarettes for all! That includes you kids! Come on, smoking is cool!
You can just imagine a critique by helicopter moms of this new work for Judith Supine’s “Golden Child” show somehow morphing into an anti-smoking crusade. The fascination s/he has with those slender white smokable sleeves is unabated – if anything cigs are proliferating throughout Judith’s fun house.

Truth is, you never know quite what to expect from the Street Artist who waves in and out of our consciousness, punctuating our pedestrian plod by popping up in doorways, hanging off bridges, and lurking in sewers with these blossom gilded child-model-smoking-sex-toy-puritan-slut-monsters who cavort and collide, limbs akimbo and entangled in acid greenwash.

Same goes for a Judith Supine gallery show for that matter; There are no pieces on sale tonight at Mecka, and the centerpiece installation is a suspended couple of double-sided hermaphroditic twins who ooze personality and whose luscious lips are smokin’.
While there are no artworks to buy, there will be a strange lottery-type print sale presented grab-bag style. According to the folks at Mecka, what is inside the long thin tube will be at least what is advertised, and in some cases, more than you bargained for. Need a light?
