Photographic Testament: Revamping the Holy Bible
The bible has been a pillar of society since its writing centuries ago. At the same time, it is a fractured and controversial document wrought not only by the wars fought in its name, but also by conflicts over the document itself, how it should be read, translated, and distributed. There are countless versions, each […]

It is difficult to determine if a “fix statement” operates between this series of experiments with the image.

The photographs are stunning commentaries on the […]

Dutch artist and photographer, Erwin Olaf, attempts to approach himself with personal definition with his series about the city, “A Homage to Berlin.” I tried to understand his artistic vision during […]
Into the Light by Sandy Kim from Pogo Books
A rainbow opens like a pink-red mouth across the sky. A man crouches in front of a lit-up fridge like it’s an oasis of light in the dark room. Light like yellow sweat is drying on a man’s face. In a self-portrait, Kim sticks out her tongue and a wave of reflected light fans out behind her […]

They surround everyone of us everyday yet still we are rarely perceptive. Visual jewels, usually devoid of humans, a mixture of pattern, color and material. Fluke acts a certain part, things appear or are swallowed by light, a different angle brings to light surprises. Harmony as well as dysphoria exist utterly equitable, and every so […]
