The Chandelier Tree in LA

"Several years ago Los Angeles-based airbrush make-up artist, photographer and designer Adam Tenenbaum was bequeathed several large vintage chandeliers that he thought might look good in his home, but to his dismay they were a bit too large. Then an idea struck him: why not hang a few in the giant tree in his front yard. The Chandelier Tree was born. Filmmaker Colin Kennedy passed the tree almost daily for nearly six years and finally decided to sit down the Tenenbaum to shoot this short documentary about this strange and beautiful tree." - Colossal

Alexandre Monntoya

”I am a Colombian artist living in Spain for nine years. During this time I walked by several color landscapes. At first I was speaking with typical colorful tropical climate, then plunged into the chaos of not knowing where to go, I went into the world of gray, and from this base have been shaping and warmth to the colors and shapes now teach.” – Alexandre Monntoya https://www.facebook.com/alexandre.monntoya

I really enjoyed the speech of famous designer Jessica Walsh (a significant part of Sagmeister&Walsh) during my OFFF visit . She was talking about numerous project and mentioned one that was secret at that moment - "40 Days of Dating". Two good friends (Jessica and Tim Goodman) with opposite relationship problems found themselves single at the same time. As an experiment, they dated for 40 days. Beside the psychological and other logical and not so logical parts of the recently started project the interesting part of it that each day was decorated with illustrations from other famous artist worth to see and explore during next month on fortydaysofdating.com
