The Nebula Art Gallery is going to close on May 14th. Where? I hear you ask … I asked the same question and it’s on my bloody land! Curator and artist Skye Donardson informed me last night that she’d be ending her rental on May 14th and then told me she had an art gallery, at which point I berated her for not telling me, called her names, poked her with sticks and then agreed to blog about it. What makes this worse is that my headquarters are based in this sim!
I should also point out that Skye is a sometimes commenter at The Alphaville Herald … so be nice! Indeed I’ve exchanged almost as many pleasantries with Skye on herald blog posts as I have inworld, she’s in the no trouble at all renter category.
So I popped to the gallery for a look, first of all this is on moderate land and there are one or two moderate themes, so if the sight of a willy is going to alarm you, don’t come here! However there are some nice displays of art here and some interesting concepts.
So I asked Skye to let me know what’s going on there and she sent me a notecard.
We have two amazing shows running through May 14th!
We have the adorable couple Sixx Yangtz and Rylan Carling on our first floor, presenting a gorgeous exhibit full of love, passion, and romance.
On the second floor we have Alles Klaar, with her amazing surreal SL pictures, and also featuring some of her real life photography work! (Her RL profession, btw…)
The third floor of the gallery is reserved for the weekly challenge winners for my Flickr group Masterminds.
After the 14th, I will be closing up shop for a while…RL is calling, and honestly, I need the break. Hopefully I can have things back up and running in a couple of months.
Cheers!
Skye
For those of a British persuasion remember to do the maths British Floor = American Floor – 1. So first floor is ground floor, second floor is first floor, third floor is second floor, yadda yadda yadda!
So I poked Skye a bit more to get further info and she informed me: “I like to do kinetic sculpture. Part of the reason I’m looking forward to the break. I need to get reinspired.”
I should also warn you that there’s an eighties radio stream playing on this parcel, and you do need to be warned because whilst I was there I heard:
“My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waitin’ for him”
Grrrr! I don’t even like the song! I’ll get you Penelope Pitstop! Where were we? Oh yes, Art and The Nebula Art Gallery!

Firstly, I grew up with 80’s music, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it.
Second, I appreciate the write up. Thank you! You’re a peach.
The gallery is closing????? Nooo! 🙁
