Eugenio Recuenco versus Pablo Picasso

in , , ,

I always admire artists' interpretations and inspirations they do from challenging or taking as a course other famous artwork. This time I was hyped up by the way acclaimed Spanish photographer Eugenio Recuenco challenged another great spaniard Pablo Picasso and created a series of photographies inspired by that genius.

Photography by Lisa Tomasetti

Australian photographer Lisa Tomasetti has worked as a visual artist and film stills photographer for the past 23 years. Her eye for cinematic drama comes through in her dance photography, a collection of images in which she is able to capture the beautiful elegance of ballet dancers set against the more rough, gritty urban city streets of Paris, Tokyo, and New York. via

Photographer Murad Osmann creatively documents his travels around the world with his girlfriend leading the way in his ongoing series known as Follow Me To. Chronicling his adventures on Instagram, the Russian photographer composes each shot in a similar fashion. We see each landscape from the photographer's point of view with his extended hand holding onto his girlfriend's in front of him.

Surreal Self-Portraits by Noell S. Oszvald

in , , ,

Hungarian photographer Noell S. Oszvald doesn’t have a huge portfolio yet, nor much is known about her – but the little that’s out there is enough to awe everyone. A 22-year-old presents a portfolio of powerful self-portraits, and one can hardly believe that she actually just started taking photos a little over a year ago. Her photos are all black and white, because Noell finds colors distracting. “I feel the same way about clothes and other matters of appearance, which why I like to reduce my images to forms, composition and content,” she says.

2D Honkey Kong by Chirstian Aslund

Swedish photographer Christian Åslund shot this Jim Rickey advertising campaign as a “tribute to classic 2D platform games and integrate the person with the street scenes”. Called ‘Honkey Kong’, Åslund shot these photos in Hong Kong using a tele lens, making the images appear flat—creating the feeling of the model navigating the streets on a 2D plane. via

Kerry Skarbakka

"In his photographic self-portrait series Struggle to Right Oneself, artist Kerry Skarbakka captures himself in moments of suspended peril: falling from trees, tumbling head over heels in painfully precarious falls, slipping nude in the shower, or teetering on the edge of a fateful leap from a railway bridge." via Colossal

This photographic work is in response to this delicate state. It comprises a culmination of thought and emotion, a tying together of the threads of everything I perceive life has come to represent. It is my understanding and my perspective, which relies on the shifting human conditions of the world that we inhabit. It’s exploration resides in the sublime metaphorical space from where balance has been disrupted to the definitive point of no return. It asks the question of what it means to resist the struggle, to simply let go. Or what are the consequences of holding on?
