Portrait of Julian

in , , ,

"Julián Cánovas-Yañez is a multidisciplinary and complete artist. He is, at the same time, film director, sculptor, painter, photographer and writer. Julian suggested time ago the idea of doing a portrait of him that could describe his capacity of creating and his constant search to understand his body and spirit. All these made Alejandro Maestre think about his work and helped him to develop the idea of this work. Therefore, with this photograph series he intend to show an artist fighting to get to know and shape himself and turn into a better human being." via defringe

Nikolay Biryukov

Russian-born fashion photographer Nikolay Biryukov is currently based in London. He works between London, Moscow, Paris and Milan shooting mainly fashion stories for a range of international magazines. Recent work includes editorials for magazines such as Elle Ukraine, Interview Russia, L'Officiel, Stylist UK, SNC, and many other. I personally admire Nikolay's website as an example of perfect photographer's portfolio - no flash, previews and etc. Just pure awesome HD images.

"In March of 2012, I was awarded an artist's residency by the United States National Park Service in southern California’s Joshua Tree National Park. While staying in the Park, I spent much of my time visiting the borderlands of the park and the areas where the low Sonoran desert meets the high Mojave desert. While hiking and driving, I caught glimpses of the border space created by the meeting of distinct ecosystems in juxtaposition, referred to as the Edge Effect in the ecological sciences. To document this unique confluence of terrains, I hiked out a large mirror and painter’s easel into the wilderness and captured opposing elements within the environment. Using a single visual plane, this series of images unifies the play of temporal phenomena, contrasts of color and texture, and natural interactions of the environment itself." - Daniel Kukla

Pinhole camera of Jan Dunning

in , , ,

”My photographs are made with a pinhole camera, offering an unsettling, enigmatic perspective on the “natural” world. The work exploits the ambiguous and transformational stance of the pinhole photograph to present confrontations between fiction and reality, the possible and impossible, the natural and unnatural.” – Jan Dunning

The Instant Lab

With the love to Instaprint project hence it went unsuccessful on Kickstater we look with a hope on another initiative. It is "The Instant Lab" from The Impossible Project (the guys behind Polaroid and its film resurrection), the mix of instant photography of two decades - analogue and digital or Polaroid Camera and iPhone. Watch it and join on Kickstarter!

Christy Lee Rogers

in , , ,

"Christy Lee Rogers is a self-taught photographer from Kailua, Hawaii. Her obsession with water as a medium for breaking the conventions of contemporary photography has led to her work being compared to Baroque painting masters like Caravaggio." As stated in personal bio, not sure what to do with Caravaggio or copywriter there but her photography is definitely worth to see.

Max Shuster

"Max Shuster is a photographer & designer from Nashville TN, USA. He mainly works on psychedelic themes with installation mixing things you wouldn’t imagine combining. When a phone and an octopus meet, a keyboard and a disco ball, or even when some pills team up to create a bowl, you’ll find in his creations a quite original aesthetic" via Whitezine
