when i say Tim Burton, i cant stop myself wondering how can be someone that creative, but in the same time that dark and confuse. (and friend of Johnny Depp also..hahaha). Anyway Harpers Bazar Magazine just realized an awsome pictorial inspired by Timothy William Burton. Enjoy it

Ella Manor’s images create an alternate worlds fusing together the characters created for each shot, which often represented through some kind of masquerade, and the layering of environments. Manor’s style becomes distinct in the mixing of exposures and transparencies of layers she often creates to tell a story. The talented New York based photographer’s vigor is clearly stimulated by fantasy and opulent imagery. It feels even more like mix media art than photography. Ella Manor’s photograph’s are currently exhibiting at the Michali Fine Art Gallery in New York’s lower east side.

Stunning photographs on lightboxes by Daniele Buetti. The results with small lights really make each image eye-catching and contemporary. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to find more information about the technique.

Daniele Buetti (born 1956 in Fribourg) is a Swiss artist currently residing in Berlin and Zurich. Since the 1980s, Buetti has been working with multimedia such as tinted photographs of glamorous celebrities, brand names and lightboxes in order to create powerful, thought-provoking art. Exhibitions of his work have been featured in galleries worldwide.

Zoriah and his story about AIDS

insidethelens — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 14:01:12 +0000

Millions of people in Asia suffer from HIV/AIDS, and millions more lives are affected. Mother to child transmission of the disease, usually after the man contracts AIDS from a sex worker and then transmits it to his wife, has produced children infected with the disease numbering in the hundreds of thousands. Families are torn apart and lives are ruined, all by a disease that could be controlled to high degree with simple education as well as proper medicine and medical facilities. One of the primary reasons for families to be thrust into poverty in the developing world is when one member becomes ill, especially if it’s the bread winner of the family and they are infected with illnesses like HIV/AIDS.

When you know what it is like for someone to suffer through AIDS in the Western world, watching people suffer through it in the absolute worst of conditions is beyond difficult. To see people sleeping on hospital floors, coated in flies with barely enough energy to open their eyes to look at you, it is hard to bring the camera up to your face and shoot. But this is my job; it is what I have chosen to do and I have done so because I believe in the power of the still image to effect change.

This IS THE story of ZORIAH and was photographed between 2004 and 2005 and re-edited in 2009.
