A slap in the face for Society

11/22/2011 by chicquero

I´m a huge fan of great drawings and illustrations, especially those expressing some great satire. The Polish artist Paul Kuczynski (he needs to improve his website), has a great hand, not to mention his great mind. Take a minute to analyse each of the following images, they all have a great cause and a truthful message behind. In my opinion, his work is very well done in terms of colours, form and production. There is a social political commentary communicated and […]

Dreaming in a pragmatic way.

11/15/2011 by chicquero

Dream Sequence Madame Peripetie aka Sylwana Zybura is a polish photographer based in Germany. The conceptual photographer is greatly influenced by Surrealism, Dadaism as well as the new wave era of the ’80s, British post punk scene and the avant-garde theater. I love her dreamy sequence, very out of this world. Sylwana explores the boundaries between fashion, photography and the human essence, experimenting through different colors, shapes and feelings. So peculiar, strange and beautiful, at the same time. Keep dreaming.. […]

Knitting the world Olek was born Agata Oleksiak in Poland and graduated with a degree in Cultural Studies. In New York City, she rediscovered her ability to crochet and, since then, has started her crocheted journey. Olek believes she chose crochet as her artistic method in order to do two things at once: watch movies and make art (what a dream job).

Snow as a luxury you wear

11/01/2011 by chicquero

Teen Vogue Ski Vacation Snow day: sporty geometric winter knits. Ski bunny, with sleek boards, chill sweaters, and furry boots, you’ll be itching to hit the slopes (or at least look like you are).

This is her strong debut in the fashion world with her new collection autumn/winter 2011-12, also featured in VOGUE Russia (check it out the other fabulous looks).The collection is inspired by 1950’s, Soviet times. I would describe a collection as a chic Stilyagi (lit. “stylish”, “style hunter”) were primarily distinguished by their snappy or fashionable clothing, considered politically incorrect and contrary to the communist-socialist realities of the time, and fascination with modern […]

My art is trying to escape

10/29/2011 by chicquero

Yuki Matsueda 3-D Art Work Japan-based designer Yuki Matsueda, managed to let some elements escape from his art pieces. The result seems quite interesting, super cool vivid 3D art pieces, successfully created and all the elements are believed to be more real than those stay still on a boring flat paper. Really original, and I can’t figure out how Yuki made them, and what materials he used to create such a fantastic pieces. It’s one thing to perhaps know how it may […]
