Egzi Polat’s Close Beside photo series

The pure melancholy of winter for some is the time of real beauty; the snow envelopes everything, creating equal beauty of white wonders. This exact beauty seems to become the prominent play in Egzi Polat’s collection entitled Close Beside. The urban setting and the use of repeating color sets of vintage-aura and the occasional black and whites all contribute to the solemn art of silence.

Yeah, sorry about that. A source stated her name as Egzi while another said Ezgi. I should’ve made sure (with her actual site having the proper spelling of the name), but I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen in the future haha. Her work is nonetheless beautiful.

The most recent single image to blow my mind is this linocut print by John C Thurbin. IT’S LINOCUT! When I consider my own linocut efforts, they involve messy scratchy nonsense and a loss of blood. The detailing on Thurbin’s print is incredible.
