Paste-up street art in London, England that says "Create or Die!" The artist is Thirsty Bstrd (Julien Surdeau), a French visual artist from Paris.
Looking at these artisans sculpting idols, one gets reminded of the saying wherein both God and the human exclaimed, “I created you.” :)
No one can truly corroborate who’s whose creation but one thing is for sure that everything on this earth and beyond it is a creation from some source; the source that manifests us all, every bit that we know about and every bit that we are yet to know. It is that source we name as God, the source which resides in us all.
In this re-Created photo if Mary Anissa Jones, I used my little sister, Autumn. I tried my very best to make this photo look like the original one. It was a little hard to get the outfit and hair just right, but the pose and taking this picture was easy. My sister also really enjoyed doing this because she loves the character Buffy, and loved me taking a picture of her.
I have such a burning passion to create memories for my children whether they are lifetsyle/candid or fine art, I just yearn to create. i don't have any images of me as a child. I don't really have any good memories of me as a child. They are all dark and scary memories. So when I had kids I told myself I will do whatever I can to give them ever lasting amazing memories of the. I want them to know they always had fun, were always playing and doing something. I want them to remember their childhood and love their childhood. I can't tell you how crazy my mind is with never ending visions and non stop brain storming and thinking about photography. I have such an urge to always be creating. Never ending emotions going through my body from my past, bad memories, scary, sad, to now memories, stressed, anxious, happy, to even my future. The emotions that run through me are are self doubt, self acceptance problems and sadness from my past. My childhood and my teen years mostly. The poor choices I made to mask the icky feelings that I had from my childhood race through my brain on a daily basis haunting my every move, thought and vision. The why's. The wonders. Wonders of the why's of what happened to me as a child. These are what go on in this mind on a daily basis. Its a never ending battle I have with myself every. damn. day. I make the best of it and I certainly will make sure i do my damn best to give my kids the best childhood I can give them so they can look back and smile.
I don't talk about this with anyone. Barely even my husband. I stay super quiet about my past. I don't want to burden anyone with my crappy feelings and emotions. If my hubby asks me whats wrong I most of the time say I am tired. I am ok, don't worry. But my mind does not stop. I have been thinking a lot about how much I yearn to create such emotive work. Its such a powerful feeling and passion I have for it that I just can't describe it. All I know is I HAVE to create. I want my kids to always know they are beautiful. So creating beautiful pieces and memories they will see they were always beautiful, loving and caring kids. They were also very loved by all. I struggle every day with not thinking I am doing my best as a parent. And I am harder on myself because of my past. I know I am. I want them to have the best life. I don't want them to feel any ick emotions that I had to go through. So I beat myself up every darn day when I know they need stuff and we cant provide at the moment. Or that I had a breakdown and yelled at them. My art is my getaway, my safe haven, my security. But these battles will be life long for me and I just have to learn how to deal with them a little better each and every day. I am wicked hard on myself as a mom wanting my kids to have the best and not having the means to give them the best. So I try so damn hard just to show them endless love. At the end of the day love is all that matters. I know material things do NOT matter but I still beat myself up knowing I can't provide everything they want for them. A lot of ppl when they have heard a bit of my "story" from me sharing bits and pieces. Come to me and say you are so put together and nice and supportive and so successful for having went through what you went through. But the truth is its definitely not rainbows and unicorns. The struggle is real and my brain feels it every day...... So I create... non damn stop...
I shooted this series on different days (and different times of days: at noon, in the afternoon and after sunset).
The imposing Buda Castle overlooks the city from its elevated position atop Várhegy (Castle Hill), rising 48 meters above the Danube. The castle has had a tumultuous history that reflects the ups and downs of Hungary's fortunes.
Today the castle, often referred to as the Royal Palace (Budavári palota), is home to a number of cultural institutions, including two museums: the National Gallery and the Budapest History Museum.
History
A first castle was built in the 13th century after Mongol tribes had invaded Hungary. King Béla IV built a keep surrounded by thick walls in 1243.
No trace of this castle remains and historians aren't even sure of its precise locations.
The 14th century: Early Grandeur
The foundations of today's castle, which would later be besieged no less than 31 times, were laid in the 14th century when King Lajos the Great built a castle in Romanesque style, which was completed in 1356. Some 40 years later, during the reign of Sigismund of Luxembourg, this early castle was replaced by a Gothic-style palace. It was one of the grandest palaces in Europe with an impressive large Knights' Hall.
The 15th century: The Kingdom at its Peak
Fifty years later the great Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus thought the palace built by Sigismund was too sober and small so he ordered the construction of a new palace in Renaissance style. A palace garden was also created during Matthias' reign, which marked a high point in Budapest's history. Artists and craftsmen from across the continent were lured by the city's prosperity.
The 18th century: The Habsburgs' Palace
Nothing remains of the early splendor of the Buda Castle. When Budapest was recaptured after the Turkish ruled the city between 1541 and 1686, the complex was completely in ruins.
Hungary's new rulers, the Habsburgs, built a new, smaller palace between 1714 and 1723. It was designed in a Baroque style by Fortunato de Prati and construction was supervised by Johann Hölbling. The palace was extended by Empress Maria Theresa, but the great fire of 1810 and in 1849 the (failed) attack of the castle during the Hungarian revolt against the Habsburgs destroyed much of the new palace.
Dual Monarchy Expansion
After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867, there was a new need for a palace in Budapest to express Hungary's larger independence. The Habsburg palace was rebuilt and expanded by Miklós Ybl, one of Hungary's greatest architects. He was aided by Alajos Hauszmann, who was responsible for much of the interior and the impressive Baroque dome. The reconstruction of the palace was mostly symbolic, since no monarch had lived here since 1541.
World War II and another Reconstruction
The palatial complex was still inhabited though and until 1944 it was the residence of Miklós Horthy, regent of Hungary. Shortly after he was deposed by the Germans, the castle was ruined once again during a drawn-out battle between the Wehrmacht and the Red Army.
Reconstruction of the castle started in 1950 following a design by architect István Janáki, based on Ybl's plans. The original Baroque dome was replaced with a classicist version. During the reconstruction the ruins of the 15th century palace were discovered and integrated into the new complex.
The Buda Castle today
The main structure of the Buda Castle, known as the Royal Palace, is rather austere compared to its predecessors; the interior in particular is completely devoid of ornamentation and none the magnificent royal apartments have been reconstructed. But despite its lack of authenticity, the Buda Castle is still an imposing complex, and its more than 300 meter (1000 ft) long facade facing the Danube is particularly impressive.
The palace consists of a number of wings (named after the letters A to F) arranged around the Lion Courtyard. The courtyard is bordered by the National Library and two museums, the National Gallery and the Budapest History Museum. There's plenty more to see around the palace, such as several statues and fountains. Below an overview of the most important sights and attractions in and around Buda Castle.
Castle Bazaar, a kind of pleasure gardens and ateliers of artists icluding- was built by Ybl Miklós, 1875-1883 in Neo-Renassaince style. It became known for its restaurants and wine gardens - a kind of Montmartre for Budapest. Most of these burned to the ground at the turn of the 20th century. All that remains is a lovely little renovated building with a fountain designed by Miklós Ybl in 1879 known as the Castle Garden Kiosk (Várkert Kioszk; I Ybl Miklós tér 2-6), once a pump house for Castle Hill and now a casino. The dilapidated steps and archways across the road, is all that is left of the Castle Bazaar (Várbazár) pleasure park.

Tsedenia Mekbib is the General Manager of Pittards Ethiopia. She studied in the UK and has since returned to Ethiopia, securing employment at Pittards – a 187-year-old British company established in 1836 in Somerset. Pittards is in the business of manufacturing leather and has recently moved into finished products such as gloves, garments and leather goods for retailers, including in the UK and locally in Ethiopia.
Pittards received a UK aid grant which provided vital skills development and training for workers such as timekeeping, communications skills and management - which has improved productivity and working conditions. They recruited people from the local community, boosting the local economy and building a skilled workforce.
“It is great to work for Pittards as a leading British business investing in Ethiopia – and with the support of UK aid, we are training people and building skills to give them opportunities to transform their lives”, says Tsedenia.
Pittards has almost 1500 employees in Ethiopia now, of which 80% are women, with many who support children. They were the first factory in Ethiopia to employ people with a disability and provide tailored support for them.
“Some of the employees working in the factory were homeless or living in poverty, and now they have stable wages and are providing for their families. Creating more jobs and boosting skills gives local communities in Ethiopia a brighter future, while providing British consumers with better products.”
UK support has provided jobs to the poorest people, helping them to improve their livelihoods. Pittards also run shifts so that workers are able to study after work by finishing shifts at 3.30pm.
Background
Investing in the world’s poorest countries to grow their economies will help create the UK’s trading partners of the future, boost global prosperity and address some of the root causes of global issues such as mass migration and instability that affect the UK.
