Surreal Self-Portraits by Noell S. Oszvald

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.

Tempting Typography

During the Graphic Design Festival Breda, Studio AIRPORT held a workshop called ‘Tempting Typography’. This three-day-long workshop was based on window-typography. Every participant joined a retailer on the St.Annastraat. On the basis of an assignment, the participants designed to reach a result which had to qualify and be able to stay on the shopping windows for a longer period of time.

The Street Art of IEMZA

IEMZA is the alias of an artist living and working in Reims, France. He is fascinated by chaotic settings, reinforced concrete and abandoned building – basically, rubble. Which forms the mainspring for most of his output. He views these disregarded spaces as fertile ground in which his creations can be born – germinated paradoxically by what appears to have sunk into oblivion and desertion.

"The rendering of my wall compositions is close to a sketch, integrating a vast hierarchy of lines."

TOCA ME 2013 Titles

Designcollector has been supporting TOCA ME conference for ages but pity has never been to Munich, hope we do it next year. In Special Titles for 2013 Event director Timo Böse came up with this blend of classic meets modern. Through interrelated pictorial elements and subtle modulation of intense colours and soothing sound, he suffused his piece with a vibrant softness. The traditional Still Life arrangements are enhanced by subtle 3D animations, evoking the artists associated with the event.
