ARTIST RESIDENCY CHINA — BEIJING, no. 3

Corp_Park_02

The artist residency I am attending is located in the Haidian district of Beijing. The museum is across from a corporate office park on a short road that leads to a small village. People walk up and down the road to and from the village all day.

Lunch

menu decisions

The residency program does not provide meals after the first night. So for me that has meant a little bit of shopping and one restaurant meal per day with leftovers for other meals. Today we had hot and sour noodle soup and a cucumber side salad for lunch — no leftovers, no complaints.

Unfortunate fish incident

There was an unfortunate incident with the goldfish. Safe to say, it was not as happy with its meal as I was with mine. A respectful burial was performed.
