Last Word

This episode is about trust and right now Helena has very little as far as Dylan is concerned. The last episode of season 6 of The L word sees Helena walk away from Dylan following their encounter at Jenny/Shane's studio where Jenny is editing the tribute video for Bette and Tina. Dylan begs Jenny not to tell Helena that she (Dylan) knew about the Nikki Stevens test but Jenny refuses to comply. Alice had earlier told Helena where Dylan is so that is where Helena finds them and hears their argument. Helena gets irate about the fact that Dylan knew all along and will not be pacified by Dylan. She just cannot trust her anymore or more to the point she doesn't know if she can.

Last Couple Standing

In this episode of season 6, Dylan made reappeared in Helena's life after walking out at Max's baby shower. Helena was feeling rather lonely as most of her friends have dance partners. Dylan came along to cheer her up or rather to make out and make a fresh start.

Lactose Intolerant

Episode 6 of season 6 of the L word sees Helena and Dylan going to a surprise baby shower thrown by Jenny for Max's baby. Helena and Dylan look so happy together and in love until Jenny congratulates Dylan on passing her test at HIT Club. Dylan is surprised that Helena would do that to her and leaves the house. Helena tries to explain but Dylan is not interested in listening. Helena is upset. She goes after her but no luck. The rest of the episode sees Helena drowning her sorrow with alcohol.

Litmus Test

Episode 5 of season 6 of the L word is a real treat for Alex's fans. Dylan and Helena get lots of screentime for a change. In this episode, Dylan is put to the test to see if she is a gold digger and would do anything to advance her career or is she truly in love with Helena. This is all Alice's idea of course but with the help of the gang, they put their plan into action. Helena reluctantly agrees to this as she is curious to find out how it will play out.

Jenny rings up Dylan pretending to be Nikki's manager. She tells Dylan that Nikki wants her to direct her next movie. Dylan is gobsmacked but decided to take up the offer. Shane asks Nikki to help out. Her job is to hit on Dylan. That will be the test.

Dylan and Nikki meet at the HIT Club as arranged by Jenny. They talk about movies and film making. Nikki closes in by sitting next to Dylan. She tells her she likes to get close to her director and if she wants to direct her movie, she, Dylan would have to go home with her tonight. Dylan declines much to the delight of the gang watching the scenario on the large monitors.

Helena immediately approaches Dylan to tell her that Tina had told her about their conversation in the planet. Dylan says it is all true and she is madly in love with Helena but she understands if Helena doesn't want to see her. Helena DOES want to see her so off they went to Dylan's place.

Helena is not in the mood for cup of tea or listening to stories on rubber trees so they make out.

Leaving Los Angeles

In Episode 4 of season 6 of the L word, Dylan makes another appearance at the Planet. This time she is there in person to have a meeting with Tina under the pretext of pitching her film. Tina isn't too pleased. She listens to her story of why she is now in LA and her real reason to see Tina. She wants help to get back with Dylan claiming that she is the love of her life. Her friends want to set her up with a date. Alice and Tash organises a dinner at their place. Helena and Jamie are cordial to each other but that is as far as it goes. Helena leaves early making excuses about Hit Club Boys' Night. She secretly turns up outside Dylan's address to invite her to dinner

LMFAO

Dylan did not make an appearance in episode 3 of season 6 of the L word. However, she has been sending flowers to Helena at Hit Club. The latest one came with a note that says "You're beautiful when you're angry"

Least Likely

Episode 2 of season 6 of The L word sees the return of Dylan. Alice was the first to spot her getting into the groove with her friends at Hit Club.

Helena follows close behind Alice to confront Dylan who later decides to leave early. Helena couldn't help herself. She rushed out to get rough with Dylan then walks away. Dylan was shocked but inwardly probably glad for the close encounter.

The L word season 6 promo

The L word season 6 premieres on January 18th. Dylan played by Alex will be returning in episode 2. She bumps into Helena at the Hit Club and the adventure begins from there for the next 6-7 episodes.

Here's a promo clip from Showtime.

Ithaka Photography Exhibition

Thursday, 2nd October saw the VIP Launch at Shoreditch Town Hall in East London, of Alexandra Hedison’s new art project, the body of work titled Ithaka inspired by C.P. Cavafy’s poem of the same name which begins - "As you set out for Ithaka, pray that the Road is a long one, full of adventure, full of discovery"
The photographs are amazing. You are taken on an incredible journey by this exceptionally talented artist as you walk through the depths of the forest captured in the giant photographs surrounding the room. Take the Journey, visit this incredible depiction of imagination, travel together with the artist through the lens to places not seen before. The Exhibition in London will run until 16th October.
The Exhibition then will make its own journey to New York to open at Gallery 28 La. Venue 608 West 28th Street, New York City on October 29th and will run until November 8th. The Exhibition will take its next journey to Los Angeles – The Dates for the exhibition in Los Angeles have yet to be confirmed.
Have a look at Alexandra’s updated website for details and have an exclusive look at the "Ithaka" catalogue.

Concrete and Glass

Concrete and Glass is a unique event showcasing some of the best talent in music and contemporary art. Taking the creative hub of Shoreditch and the east end as its inspiration Concrete and Glass taps into the extraordinary array of music venues and gallery spaces in the area. The event takes place on 2nd & 3rd October 2008.

Supporters of Alex's work will have the chance of a lifetime to see her latest project 'Ithaka' which will be exhibited at Shoreditch Town Hall. Structured around journeys, Alex's work addresses themes of loss, transition, and recovery as photographs in various locations around the world searching for each site’s complex identity.

Using the temperate rainforest of the Pacific Northwest as an illustration of the internal odyssey that comes with change, ITHAKA was inspired by C.P. Cavafy’s poem of the same name. In the poem Cavafy begins by offering a piece of advice: “As you set out for Ithaka, pray that the road is a long one, full of adventure, full of discovery.” This series of photographs is not a literal portrayal of the forest but rather an attempt to chart and in fact document the process of personal growth. Using the forest as a metaphor, Alex's work illustrates the journey from a recognisable place to one that is unfamiliar, in fact presenting the individual's journey through life itself.

Alexandra herself will be in attendance. The prints will be available for sale and a catalogue of her work is also in the pipeline.

The show will open from 6pm till 11pm and entry will be by tickets which can be purchased here.
There is a discount for students.

Stand Out mag

There is a good interview with Alex in Standout Magazine. She mentioned fanofalex.com in it (actually she called it friend of alex) and said how helpful it was for her during the break up period. As I've mentioned many times on the message board, that was really my whole purpose in starting the site- to give her a little boost during which must have been a really terrible time. From there is has blossomed quite a bit, but it doesn't change my original mission! :) It's really gratifying knowing that my "random act of kindness" worked.

Here's the interview :

ARTWORKS MAG

Tucked into the hillside of Laurel Canyon, just a stones throw from the
glitter and glamour of Hollywood, Alexandra Hedison has carved out
her own personal, very private, sanctuary. Her home is a perfect reflection of her personality – comfortable, casual, open and filled with things
that are personally significant. Her photographs are everywhere – edgy
narratives on her life, which not so long ago was fodder for the
tabloids. All of that seems a world away as she curls up on her vintage
sofa and opens up on her life and her art. She is funny, honest, and
completely engaging. And oh yeah, did we mention beautiful. Not a
lick of make-up, but it didn’t matter. Alexandra Hedison is the real deal.
