Artist Gabriel Dawe is showing his incredible new installation that just opened to the public last October 6 in Como, Italy.
As part of Miniartextil, an annual exhibition of contemporary art, Dawe created Plexus no. 19, a stunning thread installation that’s beautifully spread across two balconies in the atrium of a historic villa. The early 19th century neoclassic house, called Villa Olmo, was acquired in 1924 by the municipality of Como and is now open to the public only during cultural events and art exhibitions like this. This year’s Miniartextil exhibition is called Agora, taking from the Greek word that describes an important public place where people come to share ideas. The visitor is invited to not just look at the artwork but to be actively involved in it. Plexus no. 19 consists of two thread structures streamed across an upper and lower balcony that is meant to be experienced from different angles or at different times of the day.

Pictures are posted at a moment’s notice on Facebook and Instagram, so there’s never a void of visuals.
Perhaps this image saturation is why surreal photo manipulation is particularly intriguing; smartphone cameras and social networking can’t hold a candle to an artist’s vivid imagination. One such visionary is veteran photographer Thomas Barbèy. Raised in Geneva before working for 15 years in Milan, this inspirational artist has spent more than 20 years perfecting his craft.
Today he resides in Las Vegas and works exclusively in black and white, including sepia toning, masterfully transforming colorless photomontages into surrealistic fine art. Some of his techniques include putting negatives together and then photographing them from above, along with traditional retouching and photoshopping.

The Daily Life of a Grandma and Her Odd-Eyed Cat. EmailEmail For the last 13 years Japanese photographer Miyoko Ihara has been taking pictures of her grandma, Misao, to commemorate her life. 9 years ago, 88-year-old Misao found a stray odd-eyed cat in her shed: she called it Fukumaru, hoping that “the god of fuku (good fortune) would come and everything will be smoothed over like maru (circle).”
Miyoko has been photographing their beautiful friendship and the way they go about their daily routine ever since. The strong bond between the two glows in every shot: “Partly because they are both hard of hearing, my grandmother and Fukumaru are always looking into each other’s eyes. They’re really close,” says Miyoko, who has recently published a hard cover photo album “Misao the Big Mama and Fukumaru the Cat“. Website: whitemanekicat.p1.bindsite.jp. "Stage of mind". Jee Young Lee, un'artista sudcoreana crea delle incredibili scenografie, senza photoshop. Ci vogliono settimane, a volte mesi. Jee Young Lee si mette paziente a ricreare le atmosfere che ha in mente, il prodotto di fiabe coreane, ricordi d'infanzia e storie occidentali (fra cui anche alcune opere Shakespeare). Il risultato sono delle scenografie pischedeliche e suggestive all'interno di uno studio di appena 3 x 6 m dentro cui, una volta completate, l'artista- 30enne- si fotografa senza mai guardare l'obiettivo e occupare un posto centrale.
"Stage of mind" è la serie delle sue creazioni in mostra dal 7 febbraio al 7 marzo alla Galleria OPIOM di Opio, Francia. "Il mio lavoro, in sostanza, registra le mie preoccupazioni e il processo della crescita. By JeeYoung Lee. By JeeYoung Lee.
