Always Curious. Get yours at bighugelabs.com/flickr

My name is Charlie O'Shields and I'm a Creative Director from Kansas City, and yes, I'm always curious, continually in search of something shiny to distract me.

 

I've always been curious, ever since I was a child, but I was inspired by reading a book by Patrick Mauries entitled Cabinets of Curiosities. On the back of the book was the following text: "Cabinets of Curiosities, or rooms of wonders, were the astonishing creation of collectors who wished to gather together everything, all knowledge - animal, vegetable, or man-made - into a single unimaginable space. An entire universe in miniature." This was exactly how I wanted to photograph and display my images.

 

So... this is my personal cabinet of curiosities - my attempt to capture slices of life and nature and collect it in one place for anyone who finds that they too are always curious.

 

I love to travel, but still have many countries and continents left to visit...
