Abandoned buildings are like time capsules, especially if unseen and untouched for over 50 years. In Italy, Luca Blast Forlani’s Intruders: Urban Explorers video is a look into his illegal explorations of various abandoned spaces: from industrial-age factories, theatres, psych wards, and WWII bombed sites. Everything is left as it was then, even the dusty calendar marking the date hanging thinly on the crumbly walls. Some spaces are more recent (say 10 to 30 years ago) but with the lack of human interruption, and plants running wild, it feels like a post-apocalyptic premonition.

The photography of Lily Nance engages the arresting vulnerability of youth in a way that only the perverse and loving reaction of the subject to its inquisitive observer really can.

From Dog Walkers to Butchers and Squash Players, there is always this subtle combination of leisure and raw commitment in Dave Imms’ projects. It’s all about ‘the things we do to get by’. Here we uncover the fragile nature of the human condition in these post-game portraits. These harsh, revealing images are strengthened by the dissection of the playing areana with the markings and the natural studio-esque appearance of the courts themselves. Read more

A beautiful dreamer, a mystic who creates dreams out of reality, and a transporter of worlds; all from behind the lens and through those eyes. Magic is real. Photographer Bhumika Bhatia will make you believe it is. Read more

For many of us the act of traveling by air — whilst not a daily activity — is now a regular part of our lives. Whether it be for pleasure or business, this very unnatural experience of being transported from country to country, or even continent-to-continent, at speeds of many hundreds of miles and hour, has become an accepted part of our social life.

Check out my photo series, Spice of Life, where I re-create famous Vincent Van Gogh paintings out of salt, food-coloring, and various spices. After each is created and then photographed, it is then swept away. Read more

I’m an art and photography student from England and my work mainly focuses on the ideas surrounding youthfulness and growing up. Through my photography, I look to express my feelings in a unique way. Me & my friends are all at a time in our lives when one decision will change our lives forever; whether its going to uni, getting a job etc. This is an incredibly daunting prospect, but exciting at the same time.

I have been in the Houston art scene for about twelve years now, shooting everything and everyone, working with major mags like Dazed and Confused and Bloodwars. The Life Of The Exotic is a ongoing project where I explore the lives of the night hawk and the wild child. Its a bit surreal but fun to exploit the habits of the modern misfit. Read more

Tom Christophersen is a Sydney-based actor, portraiture artist and general arts atrocity. Christophersen makes art which deals with the underbelly of popular culture. Jewels that kill, expired models with habits, and the hideously beautiful all form part of Christophersen’s work, which creates a mythos around the nature of beauty, death and glamour. Read more

Chew Jern Ian, a 19 year-old Malaysian photographer, prefers to patiently coax magic out of his compact camera. He claims influence from an eclectic variety of sources including Indian curry and Korean trot music. When asked about his ideas behind the Disconnection series, he simply said, ‘I will leave it for you to interpret’. Read more

This Was Found is a new way of disseminating photographic work by dropping or hanging the photographic prints in public spaces. The prints are hand-developed in the This Was Found darkroom, framed, and then dropped in selected locations. The hope is that these works are picked up by members of the public, and they then report back that they have found a picture. So far, 4 of the 6 drops that have been found have been reported in by the finders. Read more
New York-based food stylist Nir Adar has managed to take even the most inedible, unattractive of species and turn them into wonderful, elegant works of art. Read more
Ok, a confession. And one made with the full weight of its implications bearing down on me like a load of feathers. Extra soft ones of course (well, it is my confession). When I see bands play – and I mean good bands; bands with rhythm – my right leg gyrates like a stunned jellyfish. Read more

Whenever I begin to take life too seriously, I head over to Indexed for a little humor treat. Never have math, formulas and graphs been so clever and witty. The creator of the site started it as a way to make fun of some things, sense of others. Somehow her little formula worked. She is now listed in TIME Magazine’s Top Blogs of 2008. And now Jessica Hagy is a published author. Enjoy exploring the inner-workings of her mind. It is simply delightful.
I almost forgot — metal is really about being drunk, pissed, offensive, and satanic. I have Bestial Mockery to thank for this. Their no-frills black thrash is barebones and snarling without being too dead-pan serious. These guys from Sweden are clearly having a blast worshiping the Dark One in the tradition of old-school bands like Venom, early Bathory, and Sodom. Nothing too original here, but it’s fun as hell.
This kind of clever visual punnery is clearly what the heel was made for. Bravo! Read more
