Andy Warhol - Still-life Polaroids (1977-83)
“Warhol used photography as an integral part of his art-making process. He referred to his Polaroid Big Shot camera as his ‘pencil and paper’. His Polaroid prints, instantaneously tangible records of the transitory, served as subjects for his drawings, silkscreens and paintings.
Meticulous arrays of bananas, knives and crosses contrast with jumbled assemblages of shoes and other commercial products. In other compositions, such as a single gray human heart presented on a vibrant red plate, individual subjects in the picture frame gain potency in isolation.
Recurrent themes of desire, consumption and mortality run throughout.
The rarity of these works coupled with the dwindling production of Polaroid flim capture both a specific time in both Warhol’s practice and in the history of photography.”

Installation at the Furniture Fair in Stockholm by Gert Wingårdh
“There’s no mistaking it. He has obtained it. Without a doubt, that’s… Solomon’s Wisdom!”
This place will not be my grave. This life was entrusted to me by Simon… by uncle Rob…and my friends. Relinquishing my life so easily would be a slap in the face to all of them.

Hey Magi fandom, here’s some mythology.
I’ve been wanting to do a post about this for a while, because this isn’t one of those shonen where the author just chose cool names for the hell of it. One Thousand and One Nights is one of my favorite books. And Shinobu Ohtaka did her homework.
- Sinbad is straight out of the book.
- There are two Sinbads in his first story: a poor Sinbad at the end of his luck, and a rich Sinbad. They meet and the rich Sinbad tells his story.
- The rich Sinbad set sail as a boy to seek his fortune. Even though he’s filthy rich, he pretty much abandons his home and goes on adventures anyway because what’s responsibility?
- And he’s really, really bad at it. Literally every one of his “voyages” begins with him lost, separated from his bros, and naked. (Usually he gets sold into slavery within the first paragraph, too. Usually to a sketch old man who just wants to ride him around like he’s a horse, or make him do stupid stuff all day. Yeah…)
Perfect way to explain someone who’s new to fandom all the terminology in a nice, eye catching way. Best photoset ever.
I have a terrible poker face.
A blog of a lowly architecture student who has no time for anything except to be obsessed by three things: art, design, and a little goofball manga called Beelzebub. I know, I don't get it either. For doujinshi just use the search bar!
