"Breathing Life"

Now that my yoga practice has become a vital thing in my daily routine, like having breakfast, my whole environment has change in a significant way, the world I see now is different, and most of the time I have to blame my yoga for that.
Michael O. Snyder, has taken the connection of yoga and what surrounds us in a whole new level, blending yoga asanas with nature to show the importance of bringing the natural world to our urban lives.

The photographer uses the yogi’s breath as a metaphor to show how even the simple act of breathing is tied to our environments. 

Though these images may look like paintings, they really are photographs! Snyder used an in-camera double exposure technique to blend the images of the poses with images of the park.

The effect is stunning: a seamless integration of human and plant forms that’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.

En su proyecto mas reciente el artista ha hecho retorcer a algunos diseñadores para convertirlos en sus propios logotipos.

Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty

This is one reason to spend this summer at NYC , this great exhibition will show the best of McQueen , and will show once again why he is one of the newest fashion icon who will live for ever. 

"The exhibition, organized by The Costume Institute, will celebrate the late Alexander McQueen's extraordinary contributions to fashion. From his postgraduate collection of 1992 to his final runway presentation which took place after his death in February 2010, Mr. McQueen challenged and expanded the understanding of fashion beyond utility to a conceptual expression of culture, politics, and identity. His iconic designs constitute the work of an artist whose medium of expression was fashion. Approximately one hundred examples will be on view, including signature designs such as the bumster trouser, the kimono jacket, and the Origami frock coat, as well as pieces reflecting the exaggerated silhouettes of the 1860s, 1880s, 1890s, and 1950s that he crafted into contemporary silhouettes transmitting romantic narratives. Technical ingenuity imbued his designs with an innovative sensibility that kept him at fashion's vanguard."
