Here’s a reminder to look up occasionally! I love these particular photo series of Hong Kong buildings from Romain Jacquet-Lagrèze – it’s such a simple concept, looking up instead of ahead, but he took these pix with such artistry you can’t help staring at them, the colours and shapes are amazing! Here are some of…
I saw these lovely tower illustrations by Cheism off Hejorama recently, and the bold bright colours really spoke to me… I love the way the various towers from each city are layered on top of each other, and the detail is stunning! Head on over to Che’s website to check out his full portfolio, or…
Can you believe these beautiful porcelain like image is actually made up of Sugar? Here’s a little more about it from Shelley Miller’s site: Stained Site specific installation in Waddington Alley, as part of an exhibition and one month residency with Open Space gallery in Victoria.
