Los Angeles based artist David DiMichele creates the fantastic. His environments follow contemporary trend to construct the monumental, to surround the viewer with visual stimulus. His work however is assembled, not in the cavernous halls and galleries of museums and art centers, but on a table in his studio.
DiMichele builds his environments as finely detailed dioramas and then he photographs them. His “pseudodocumentary” photographs comment on the way we see and experience the monumental art that it pays homage to. Not often can the public experience the physical sense of an enormous installation. Most commonly, we see the work through a reproduction or website. Working in this manner, DiMichele can take the “installation shot” much further. Controlling light, angle and composition. And heighten the experience. (by Amir).

Keun Young Park is an artist originally hailing from Seoul, South Korea, but is currently based in Jersey City, New Jersey. Park creates interesting artwork out of thousands of pieces of torn photographs carefully pasted together to make up a larger figurative image, building an extremely weird texture and effect through this technique.

Bo’s expression is modern and pure and always with a surprising twist. His photographs seize the eye with their beauty and presence and keeps it lingering with his attention to detail.

Anonymous asked: Yo, when I was like 10 I repeated something I heard about "political correctness" to my mom. She told me that whenever I hear the phrase "politically correct" I should mentally replace it with "polite" and see if it makes the speaker sound like a jerk. It totally works (and, surprise, they always sound like jerks). Props to my savvy mom.
Props to your savvy mom.
