Street art by JR

in , , ,

"A semi-anonymous street artist of international renown, JR plasters giant, monochrome photographs of faces in urban centers—on rooftops and walls, in church windows, and along the sides of buses. Calling the street his gallery and “using art to turn the world inside out,” JR delivers a message of social action, telling the stories of the marginalized or voiceless." via Art.sy

"Filippo Minelli (Brescia 1983) is a contemporary-artist connoting his artistic productions with interventions in public space, several times of urban typology. His artistic path in traditional Graffitism begins in the second half of the nineties but the urge of evolving his productions into something more contemporary became insistent with the years." says Sweet Station

Fashion attack by Tara Dougans

in , , , ,

A second fashion attack by Tara Dougans mimicking and reworking men fashion haute-coutre in illustrative way, now made after Paris Fashion Week. "Originally concepted as an 'animated editorial', the project kicked off shortly after Paris Fashion Week Menswear in January. Inspired by the Burmese proverb 'beware of a man's shadow and a bee's sting', the idea was to juxtapose the subtle stoicism of menswear imagery with a cheeky animated wink. Having previously worked almost exclusive with pencil, the aim was to create a multisensory experience without losing the feel of handcraftsmanship."
