Square Print Sale – Magnum Photos. STAINS™ STAINS™ is a spoof aspirational brand.

STAINS™

It is a line of bloodstain-themed fashions and accessories complete with adverts, spokesmodels, a CEO, brand identity guidelines, social media street team, and a ‘mockumentarian’, culminating in a merging of art, activism and science. STAINS™ critiques disposable menstrual product advertising’s lack of engagement with blood, except for when they use ‘leakage fear’ and words like ‘whisper’ and ‘discreet’ to shame consumers into seeking out their innovations. The STAINS™ logo is a stylised bloodstain inspired by the silhouette of the prehistoric fertility sculpture, Venus of Willendorf. Supporters are encouraged to take their fashions to the streets, and reclaim the biggest period worry reported to education researchers by generations of young people.

Beautiful vertiginous landscapes are more than meets the eye, illustrating fictitious sound waves conceived by the artist. “Ödlund has… explored and embodied phenomena and worlds that humans, with our limited senses, scarcely can perceive… Through meditation she places herself in a condition she refers to as simulated synaesthesia, in which sensory impressions flow freely; scientific data or audio translates into colours, music transforms into shapes or motions, images become sensations of taste.

Aligned with this interdisciplinary thinking Ödlund has followed researchers in organic chemistry at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm in their attempts to decipher the chemical language of plants.” – Galleri Riis via BOOOOOOOM.

How to shoot images of powerful women and vulnerable men. A shoot is a collaboration. There's the stylist, make-up artist, hairdresser, assistants, set designers, clients, and input from the magazine if it's editorial.

OK, Do It: Teach Me How to "Get" Art. A while ago, I wrote a piece about how I don't "get" art.

For some reason, a lot of people have been looking at it lately. After reading through the several hundred really really fucking boring comments that were left on it about why I'm wrong, I thought maybe it would be a good idea to give art yet another chance. This time enlisting the help of someone who claims to know what they're talking about.

And, as lots of boring internet people pointed out, I couldn't have been more wrong. In the spirit of fairness, I decided to give art a second chance. After (scan) reading through all of those Reddit comments to see where I might be going wrong, I took my newly opened mind, and went down to the Frieze Art Fair in London.
