It's always hard to come back to the office after 9 days of holidaying and sunshine. But then again, who am I to complain...who even gets week-long public holidays besides China? All say hoorah to Chinese New Year. I am now a very dark shade of brown; much healthier than pasty yellow though I must say! Winter doesn't do wonders for one's skin. Anyway, to the fun stuff...Someone told me about . . .
Metamorphosis
A beautifully timed shot - not a second too early, not a second too late. Florida-based photographer David Taggart photographed this and called it "Ready to Fly" but once it took its rounds across the internet, the public soon renamed it "Metamorphosis". "The picture was captured in Valparaiso, Chile where I was photographing the city's rich outdoor murals. As the man walked into the . . .
Collab#1 by Now&Them
Where have the last two months disappeared to? Collab#1 by Now&Them. "What?" you say. Our communications agency Paper Stone Scissors started a platform called Now&Them, celebrating creativity in society. We launched with an event called Collab#1 - an exhibition that encourages collaboration across multiple industries. Furniture Designer x Chocolate Factory, Graffiti Artist x Skull . . .

Miniature Works
Istanbul-based Microartist, Hasan Kale, uses extreme precision and a steady hand to create a series of impossibly small paintings using everyday objects as his canvas. According to Kale, “things we usually see can turn into something invisible” - this thought inspired his new direction and his work calls attention to the things that we see yet often ignore in daily life. Anything from a butterfly . . .
Beauty in Darkness
"Guess who's back, back again. Shady's back, tell a friend. Guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back..." *music plays in the background* Yes, I'm back from my brief hiatus (with a massive tan) - adventured around Turkey & Greece for the past few weeks, which was more amazing than I could've imagined with each city being so . . .
Big Data Smoothies
A drink full of big data and kale chips? Sounds delicious. Josh Kline’s Skittles are not exactly the little pellets of chewy, sugary goodness that you throw into your mouth. The ones that taste like rainbows. Showcased within the Archeo outdoor art exhibition, Kline combines social activism with a sense of humour... From far, these may look like ordinary juice bottles. But upon closer . . .
Depth in Folds
New York-based Brazilian artist Marcelo Daldoce likes to go beyond the conventional 2D landscape of paper and canvas, bringing life to a flat surface, and he certainly does this with his creative artwork. In order to construct these optical illusions, Daldoces uses acrylic paint to create images on paper, then proceeds to fold it into different patterns and designs - giving his work a kick of . . .
Salt Art
With a creative mind and a whole lot of patience, Motoi Yamamoto created a sculpture named “Forest of Beyond”, solely using grains of salt. The massively intricate installation resembles the roots of a tree and was displayed at the Hakone Open Air Museum. Attendees were asked to help dissemble it bit by bit, by taking the salt with them and returning it to the sea to create a complete . . .
Boxed Up
Talk about captivating. Throughout the years, we've seen countless different mediums and expressions showing the beauty of the human body. 'The Cube' by New York City photographer and artist Natalie de Segonzac really caught my attention and showcases naked human bodies in a completely captivating way. Contorted into various positions within a cube, both female and male bodies are photographed. . . .
