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.
” I started photography around 2005 when I was living in Brooklyn. I’m in Boston now which is my hometown. My passion is creating conceptual stories that have an air of mystery…Read More »
“What does love look like? Anything. As long as two people match, no matter in what way, it’s love.” (The Morning News)
Why not to be a bit obvious and start the day talking about relationships? They are so simple and, paradoxically, so complicated, so unpredictable, so full of possibilities. We accept human beings as social animals but love is still a mystery in our lives, even Science trying to explain it as hormone reactions.
What does make us interested in another person? What does…Read More »
French street artists Ella & Pitr have the most romantic story! She used to be a comedian, he a graffiti writer. They met each other in the streets of St. Etienne (France) while doing paste-ups. Now isn’t that just lovely coincidence? Their street art works consistst out of paste-ups that are subtile, yet hold a whole lot of emotion and humanity.
With Indian ink, paper, glue and a ladder Ella and Pitr create their own contemporary vision of humanity. In their work you can discover…Read More »
An old saying goes “The more you practice, the better you get”. New Hampshire 24 year old born photographer Sarah Ann Loreth took that advice to advance her skills as an artist with her 365 days project. Basically for a year you take a picture (mostly self-portraits) every single damn day. The easy part is shooting the image, the hard part is to come up with a challenging idea and concept day after day. It take a huge amount of determination…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 »
The 26 year old Carlos Nascimento from Portugal is professionally speaking a sound engineer working in film and advertising sound post production. However, for the last 5 years he’s been picking up the camera more often and firing away. So far it is just a collection of random shots, somehow it feels like a visual scrapbook. Not to push anyone or anything in a certain direction, but… I can see Carlos making a killer non-motion picture combining his sound…Read More »
I stumbled across the works of England based photographer (and super multi creative) Lee Basford in our Shuttercrack group on Flickr. With his images shot on the Japanese Island of Hokkaido he tells us the beautiful story of an old school working horse farm. What might seem to be the simple life is actually hard labour that requires a great set of skills. It might be hard to grasp for those caught up in the paper…Read More »
