    Desire Me.

    ✨ Desire Isn’t Dangerous: Welcome Your Wants

    I was a drug addict for over a decade, so I know what it feels like to be in the grip of “want.”
    To want something so bad that anyone around me, mostly you, sometimes me, would get hurt in the whirlwind.

    When I got clean, I couldn’t tell the difference between craving and need.
    For years, everything felt like need. Everything felt urgent.
    Food, love, friendship, social interaction, work, music—everything.

    So now, when I want something, I pause and ask:

    • Is this coming from fear or from freedom?
    • Is it about relief, or is it about truth?
    • Is this about “fixing”, or is it about “growing?”

    Craving comes from absence.
    Desire comes from clarity.

    What do you desire the most?

  • 2025 – Gallery Opening Celebrating Photographer Ed Colver featuring Live in-conversation with Jennifer Finch

    2025 – Gallery Opening Celebrating Photographer Ed Colver featuring Live in-conversation with Jennifer Finch

    Renowned photographer Edward Colver is set to showcase his work at the Punk Museum:

    March 30, 2025 at 2 – 4 PM
    Opening Celebration and Conversation between Edward Colver and Jennifer Finch

    Colver’s lens captured the raw essence of the Los Angeles punk scene from 1978 to 1984, immortalizing its energy and ethos.​albumcoverhalloffame.wordpress.com

    Born on June 17, 1949, in Pomona, California, Colver was largely self-taught, with brief formal training at UCLA under Eileen Cowin. Influenced by Dada and Surrealism, as well as avant-garde composers like John Cage, his artistic vision was both unique and profound. Within months of picking up a camera, his work began appearing in publications, leading to collaborations with major record labels and over 500 album covers. ​albumcoverhalloffame.wordpress.com+2en.wikipedia.org+2Edward Colver+2Edward Colver+2Edward Colver+2en.wikipedia.org+2

    Colver’s photographs are synonymous with the hardcore punk movement, offering an unfiltered glimpse into its fervor. His iconic images, such as the cover of Black Flag’s “Damaged” and Circle Jerks’ “Group Sex,” encapsulate the spirit of the era. His commitment to authenticity made him a fixture at punk venues, attending shows five nights a week to document this cultural phenomenon. ​monsterchildren.comNorthwestern Art Review+1monsterchildren.com+1

    In anticipation of the exhibition, here are some questions curated for Colver:​

    We invite readers to submit their own questions for Edward Colver in the comments below. Selected inquiries will be featured in our upcoming interview, providing a deeper insight into the legacy of this pivotal artist.​

    Join us at the Punk Museum on March 30 to experience Colver’s compelling visual narrative of the Los Angeles punk scene.
