Frauke Thielking likes to put people in awkward positions. Though I don’t profess to know much about her, I do know she hails from Lübbecke, Germany, likes to be called Flauke, and her photographs speak to me. I get a sense of status quo and uniformity from her photographs, but at...

Your brain is being bombarded by hundreds of advertisements every single time you step outside. Parisian street artist and provocateur Zevs doesn’t like this. In fact, he has declared war on advertisement executives in an effort to take back a visual plane free of toothpaste and...

Take a deep breath. That wall in Brooklyn? It’s not an acid flashback from that time you went to Bonnaroo. It’s a mural by Brooklyn native Maya Hayuk. I mentioned Hayuk in my last post in regards to her painting the Flaming Lips art space, “The Womb”. She is another...

Natsumi Hayashi might just be the Japanese twin I never had. She’s a young photographer living in Tokyo with a mild cat obsession. Can I get a pen pal? Hayashi began taking self portraits of herself around the streets of Tokyo and now she exists two feet off the ground. Using a...

Money has next to nothing to do with why we reach out and attempt to finger the pleasure center of your brain. We’re here because we want to be. It’s mutually satisfying. We’re your internet girlfriend who gives head because sometimes she just likes to start the day by...

Fabien Merelle creates surreal drawings that pack a lot of punch into the delicate drawings. Marelle created a series of abstractions based on what I can only assume was blinding terror. He explores each setting through startling characters but also captures a certain sense of humor. There is...

I don’t usually envy art over real life but, for a minute I’d love nothing better than to pop off into one of David Benjamin Sherry’s psychedelic landscapes. There is an eerily detached meditation behind all those color gels. Something dark hiding within that fucking rainbow...

Wow. I’m sure there are many words out there to describe artist Gabriel Wickbold’s photography, but right now I’m left speechless. Wow is all I can say. The colors match the model’s expressions perfectly, and the lighting of each shot really reflects how talented and...

Something for the start of Summer. L.A. artist David Choe is returning to his hometown after a six-year absence with Nothing to Declare, his new solo show at Lazarides Gallery. The show starts April 23rd and shows through May 23rd. VERY eclectic style. Humble, yet very aware of his pop...

You can’t predict when magic will happen – but you can catch it on film. Sofia Ajram is a fashion and concert photographer  finishing her final semester in Graphic Design at Dawson College in Montreal. In 2007, Ajram was hired by Truth Explosion Magazine as a concert photographer,...

It’s only the third issue of LOVE magazine, but already I can tell they are working with powerful voodoo. Can someone explain to me how supermodels Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Lara Stone, Daria Werbowy, Natalia Vodianova, Amber Valletta, Kristen McMenamy, and Jeneil are appearing nude inside...
