New York City based Craig Feder has a rich history in photography and always travels the NY city streets with his camera. This resulted in an almost iconic series of the people of New York City. Craig has managed to capture the kind of people that caught my eye when I was in New York, but who he calls ‘the invisible people’. They are the kind of people that would stand out in any other place in the world, but as New York is…Read More »
Portuguese photographer Eduardo Nascimento contacted us about his most recent and personal work called ‘Treshold’, a series of personal portraits along with a short essay about the concept. The series is all about perception, boundaries and intimacy: “Threshold is a study about the limit. Of the photographer on the other, of the observer on the other, of the other on the camera. Its double meaning reveals that we are also facing an exploration of the conditions of imminence. Threshold questions the portrait’s nature, acting…Read More »
It’s not easy to distinguish yourself as a conceptual portrait photographer, as there’s tons of them out on Flickr who try and get a bit of recognition for their work. The photography of Diana Lemieux sets herself apart though! Based in Boston, she creates expressive female portraits that are both raw as emotional.

Our friend CodeFC is a frequent visitor of South-East Asia. We’ve seen some nice works Code made in that area, but none as striking as his most recent series in Sri Lanka. I think most of you know that there has been a civil war waging in Sri Lanka between the government and the Tamil Tigers since the early 80’s. In 2009, the Tigers were defeated by the military and ever since we haven’t heard…Read More »
Exceptional work from Italian street artist James Kalinda! You can find his art on the walls of abandoned buildings, sometimes together with Centina, an artist we recently featured. His paintings are quite dark, something that extends in James’ sculptures which contain animal skeletons. But painting or sculpture, all of his works seem to lure at you directly. Besides being a (street) artist, James Kalinda is also an exceptional tattoo artist.
“James Kalinda signs his work with an…Read More »
Documentary / fine art photographer Nick Pironio, based in Raleigh, North Carolina, sent us some amazing photography the other day. Although the series he saw fit for us were good (‘last night’ & ‘Laura’), we personally favoured some of his other pictures. In his impressive photography portfolio we found striking portraits from barbershop college students, urban chicken ‘farmers’ and former U.S. senator and Democratic presidential candidate in 2008; John Edwards. With more interesting concepts and projects on…Read More »
Rezine is a ‘graffiti’ artist from Lyon, France. I say ‘graffiti’ because Rezine does a lot more than just Graffiti. You could describe his work as post-graffiti, or work that has derived from the French graffiti movement in the 90′s. Rezine isn’t afraid for any kind of medium; wall, paper, canvas, recycling art, volume, installations light painting photography or a combination of multiple techniques. In 2007 Rezine realised the book ‘lightgraff (edition Graff-it productions). Right now Rezine’s working on a brand new book which…Read More »
Street art sculptor Isaac Cordal continues to impress us with his Cement Eclipse series! The little cement sculptures he places in cities around the world always convey the right emotion. The latest cement eclipses update comes from the home of Isaac Cordal: the Galicia area in the North-West of Spain. In Pontevedra, Galicia there’s a big pulp mill which has been polluting the area and transforming the landscape into something hideous since 1957. Isaac’s cement eclipses don’t seem to be…Read More »
