DOPE!!! LAST ONE STANDING // 16th June 2011

In Vertebrata, photographer Marc Da Cunha Lopez has placed skeletons – properties of a biology department of Paris university – in different empty spaces and interiors that he captured during previous travels around the world. 

The feeling that stands out from these pictures is one of waiting. A long expectation, full of hopes and dreams that never came true. Thus, these animals naked to the bones become almost humans.

Living and working in Paris, Marc Da Cunha Lopez is a talented photographer sharing his practice between his clients – among them: Playstation, Hermès, Peugeot, Fiat, Canal Plus or Nike – and personal works. Born in 1979, he first studied Biology – what inspired Vertebrata – and then photography in Gobelins and graduated in 2005.

Realistic Paintings of Hair and Braid Patterns

Korean-born artist So Yoon Lym creates these realistic paintings of hair and braid patterns. With their uniform angle and monochromatic approach, they’re really quite stylish and give time to this hair craft, which too often only garners a quick glimpse from a distance.

Twisted and Molded for Sitting

The following is an exercise in sculpting. A project of carbon fiber proportions, one made when the designer Allen Chester G. Zhang was experimenting with shapes and materials. The project Zhang set for himself was a chair for hotels and cafes, and indeed that’s what’s appearing in the gallery inside this post. A lovely black and hopefully charcoal gray can be seen in each image. This is a chair made for sitting back and drinking up a cold soda or coffee all day long.

On the front you sit, in the back you store. A loose fitting storage bit on the back spells out how relaxed your situation in and around this chair is meant to be, and smooth flowing will your chi and blood be moving.
