This is a collaboration project between Ulrik Martin Larsen and Laerke Hooge Andersen (http://www.ulrikmartinlarsen.com/). The project was a series of object and material assemblage into small and abstract notions of future domestic objects under the title 'Interrupted action'. The photographic series was exhibited in London Chelsea town hall this year.  

Water Textures

I was having quite a bit of fun the other day playing with watercolors and creating water textures using dots of water. The results were quite interesting and lead me to start thinking about a possible way to preserve this quality , as opposed to allowing it to dry. I love the idea of exploring some kind of hardening material in there ,maybe glycerin? I am interested in keeping this gem, jewel like quality that the dots of water create, and perhaps growing it to be huge. Would be amazing as an idea for wall coverings. It reminds me of the candy dots we used to eat as kids that came on a roll. New inspiration? I think so! - Dana

Double fun!

I am very exited about this new book from Gestalten, called 'Doppelganger' and I cant wait to buy it! Check it out, it's über cool !

"Doppelganger presents current trends in capturing the visual identity of human beings. Each of its seven chapters explores a different creative approach: Embody, Dissolve, Appeal, Reshape, Perform, Deform, and Escape. The book is a compelling and entertaining collection of groundbreaking permutations of the outer human shell created with costumes and masks as well as photo-technical and artistic manipulation. While inventing, enhancing, obscuring, or altering identities, the images play with and often obliterate classical proportions and visual traditions. In doing so, they reveal further possibilities for what can be considered beautiful and fashionable". picture and text borrowed from Gestalten.com
