Intimate Photography

Beautiful Photography from Maarit Hohteri from the Helsinki School. She captures fleeting moments from her life and family, creating a beautiful, personal, meaningful photography series.

Easton Awesome.

Easton Miller, a young Chicago artist who combines painting and sculpture with found materials to create art. I like it a lot.

Back to basics.

Four New Albums

Usually I do these things in threes, but I've acquired four new albums of late which I'm very happy about, as they're very good.

Austra- Feel it Break



Beastie Boys- Hot Sauce Committee Part Two



Sleigh Bells- Treats



The Weeknd- House of Balloons (official mixtape)

Priceless

So I started following Irish fashion designer, Peter O Brien on Twitter and he's gradually becoming my favourite Tweeter (person who tweets??)

Here are some gems from him in the past week:

"Oprah says she "learns so much" from her audience............... Like what; how to be unseemingly hysterical when given free gifts?"

"What evil sadist dresses Vanessa Williams on 'Desp Housewives'. They should be sent to Bustier Hell and made wear too small clothes forever"

"'The Only Way Is Essex' has just won a BAFTA. Just waiting for Jordan to win The Man Booker prize."

"Why is the carpet in The Taoiseach's office Klein blue and the chairs bois de rose, hideous combo!"

"Know I'm 136 years too old to 'get' Lady Gaga; watching on BBC3 for first time, about as edgy as an angry 14 year old; and lip synching."

"Why would a one shoulder dress have a shoulder pad.........she looks like she is carrying her own pesonal toilet roll."

The English language is gone to the dogs.

Beyonce Billboard Award

I'm not mad about the song, but there's no denying this performance is unbelievable, and the visuals? Extremely impressive. (if it's too long for you, skip to 3.30 for the essential bit)

JAM ART

There's a new Gallery in town, its called the JAM ART FACTORY. Its on Patricks St, near the cathedral. It's a really nice laid back place to pop into. I have a few digital prints in it, as well as the wooden pieces. There's also some lovely illustrations, textile art, and photography. Also, check out their Facebook page.

Why don't you like Strangeways?

"BECAUSE THEY JUST PLAYED BEASTIE BOYS AND NO ONE CARED"

My first shoe crush.

I'm more of a handbag fiend rather than a shoe fetishist, but HOLYFUCKINGJESUS look at these:

Human + Exhibition

So I designed an apron, so I did. It got chosen with five others, to be worn by the staff of the Trinity Science Gallery during their Human + Exhibition. We all got invited along to the opening. That mad yock Stelarc was there, (the one who implanted an ear in his arm). I had my sushi debut that night. It was yum. They also served seaweed soup, and edible dandilions.

P.S. Stellarc has the most evil laugh I've ever heard in my life.

p.p.s The pictures were taken by 4th year NCAD visual communications student Rebecca Matthews, who's covering the story for her degree project.

Nice Photos

I found this strange blog today. Extremely peculiar, a lot of mundane, creepy items in it. A lot of it was borderline unacceptable. Here a few aesthetically pleasing images I found,
unfortunately they didn't have any sources.

It's called Satans Maruschka.

Royal Fashion

I tried to find a nice fashion report from the Royal Wedding, but for the past week or so, all I've been finding are trashy 'what was she wearing' articles. Last night, I found a nice, balanced article in W Magazine. Read it here.


Miriam Gonzalez, wife of Nick Clegg.

Guuuurl you got it wrong. (put em away)

Susie.

This woman gives me lots of laughs.

He's a cool guy you know.
