The Future Earth Ring plays on the notion that we are on our way to destroying nature as we know it, and that at some point we will have to have all kinds of systems to maintain earths species from extinction. This ring features an enclosed, clear chamber that houses some natural lichen from Scandinavia. The contrast from the oxidized and brushed finish on the silver, and the smooth glass cover housing the lush green life inside really portrays this desire to preserve mother nature from humans destruction.
One of my first photoshop efforts...I used quite a few layers and cuts and Kyoto...original work mine
I created these pieces of work as a part of my Final Major Project for college. The idea is based on the set design of the 1927 film "Metropolis" by Fritz Lang.
Right at the moment, life with university, future prospects and the worrying of getting a job and doing all those things you want to do like traveling and doing those activities you've soo wanted to do (sky diving) can get you feeling down.
I shot this and realised that it was all so simply complicated that you can just stare at it for days without a second thought. Time passes you by and the next thing you know you've got a family of your own and you look back and think to yourself about what you've achieved.
By all means look at the beauty of life and it's complications by dont be afraid to walk in it's ever lasting Mist that surrounds us all and explore what you want to explore.
Thank you for viewing my photo :) xx
While I was going though some of the images shot while doing some lighting tests… This image really caught my eye after noticing the Cross and the drum set in the background. It reminded me of Nikolay’s ambition to become a worship leader when he grows up.
not the full story, but my bed is too embaressing to show right now.. however, my bed is next to the windows that face the street..
ACT Professor Azra Akšamija framed her Spring 2015 section of Foundations in Art, Design, and Spatial Practices (4.302), around the idea of Wunderkammer, or cabinets of curiosities. These wonder-rooms gained popularity in Europe in the sixteenth century and typically comprised encyclopedic collections of objects, ranging in scope from natural history and geology to ethnography and archaeology. Akšamija asked students in “Wunderkammer: Propositions for Future Museums,” “to think about artifacts for the future that tell a particular narrative about our time – perhaps related to ecological problems or other contemporary concerns.”
Through artistic practice and research, undergraduate students in this course investigated future forms of museums and the design of futuristic artifacts inspired by global cultural heritage.
During the semester, students worked on two studio projects related to the wunderkammer theme. The first project was body-centered in both its scale and conceptual focus. For this exercise, students created narratives set in the distant – and sometimes dystopian — future that focused on the body as an interface with the world. They addressed topics such as gender identity, politics and ecology in projects that ranged from wearables to performance pieces to video installations.
