Pandora to exhibit in 2010 SEAF
I am very pleased to announce that three pieces of my sexual portrait photographs have been selected for exhibition at the 2010 Seattle Erotic Art Festival (SEAF).
My artwork will hang among the 120 pieces chosen from 1,600 submissions that were received from 440 artists in 36 states and 27 countries. This is the third year that my artwork was selected for exhibition. My artwork was also presented in 2007 and 2009.
I am also pleased to report that I am one of the featured artists in the SEAF Festival Store this year.
The Seattle Erotic Art Festival will take place from April 30 – May 2nd, 2010 at the Seattle Centre Exhibition Hall.
The following images will be exhibited at SEAF this year:

Wow! I just received the photographs for the ‘Suits and Stilettos’ fashion show that was part of the Talon art exhibition last month. Great photos (see below)!

The exhibition ran from May 21 – May28th, 2009. Images from the exhibition have been posted on my website, www.eroticartandmerchandise.com. Click on ‘Gallery and Store’ menu item.

Yeah! All the photographs from the Talon series have now been uploaded to my website and are available for viewing or purchase.
During the Talon exhibition last month, only 20 of the 57 photographs from the series were showcased in the gallery. The online gallery includes all 57 images. There were so many great photos in the series, it was very hard to choose which ones to hang for the show.
The images that are posted on-line include the ones that were previously censored by Apple. The images were considered ‘inappropriate’ by Apple, who declined to print the book of images titled ‘Talon’ from the Talon exhibition. Since then, I was able to find a new publisher, Blurb.com, who printed the book without issue. The book will be available for purchase soon. I have to make a few tweaks to the first draft before it’s ready to go.
I’d love to hear which images you love or hate the most … please feel free to post your comments about Talon or any other series here on my blog.
best regards,
Passia Pandora

Talon closes (for now)
The final two Talon exhibition events were GREAT! The Suits and Stilettos fashion show by Aramic Boutique was mouth watering sexy (both the fashions and the models). Natasha Campbell from tasha e productions did a great job presenting the show. In keeping with the theme of the exhibition, Natasha managed to incorporate some kinky props for the models to use while they were strutting their stuff. Photos from the fashion show will be posted soon.
Talon has closed for now. Right after the show closed, I moved my residence into the gallery space. I’ve been living there , amidst boxes for about a week now. Slowly, everything is getting put away and sorted out. Once everything is back in order, the gallery will be open for viewing again during posted hours (and perhaps another party).
Unfortunately, during the move, Telus mistakenly deleted my phone and internet service so I’ve been out-of-touch since then. I just switched my internet to shaw, so I can now receive emails to these two email addresses:
info at eroticartandmerchandise dot com
passia at shaw dot ca
I also have a new cell phone: 778-318-8542.
I’ll be posting the images from Talon on my website soon. Stay tuned!

This has been a very busy week in preparation for the Talon exhibit.
With the addition of a fab new lighting system designed by Alan Rhyason and picture hanging rails designed and installed by Morten Labo of Hafnia Construction, Pandora’s new live/work studio was transformed into a functioning gallery over the weekend.
The Talon artwork, which was framed by Eric Burke of Framehouse Boutique was hung today. The furniture is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.
Of course, the gallery preparations are only half the story. The liquid libations and delectable delicacies are now being readied, the music has been selected and some playful interactions are also in the works.
Last but not least, Pandora was able to find a new publisher (Blurb.com) for her Talon photo book. She has just received news that it has been printed and shipped. With any luck, it will arrive in time for the festivities. The book includes a collection of images from the Talon series, including some images that were not exhibited in the show.
The Opening Night for the Talon exhibit is Saturday May 23, 7 – 11 pm.
Please join us!
