Yann Gross is a Swiss photographer with a really great idea. With his photo series “Horizonville,” Gross attempts to capture the American culture that resides in much of the Rhone Valley’s inhabitants. I find the work interesting because of the people Gross photographed have never even been to the US.
They feel a sense of belonging to another culture that they don’t really know. Far from the Swiss stereotypes, the confusion of symbols and the lifestyle of the people take us in a strange atmosphere, a dreamed reality that doesn’t exist in facts.
Definitely worth taking a peek.
Netherlands-based photographer Sander Meisner‘s work is a wonderful example of how composition can cultivate emotion. His photos highlight the sense isolation and loneliness that can be found in otherwise ordinary scenes. More after the jump.
Since we’re already on the subject of exploding stars, why not discuss this beautiful photograph of the 1,000 year later aftermath of a supernova?
One of our new years resolutions is to post more about studio news and our own work on here, so between this and the new flags we are off to a good start. This stuff is just a set of a few images I shot while in West Texas over the New Years break. The shot above is of a ridge between Study Butte and Alpine. I spent about a half a week in Alpine with my girlfriend. We camped in Big Bend one night, ate at the Gage Hotel in Marathon and spent New Years in Marfa with a couple of the other PUBLIC SCHOOL fellas.
The thing about lunar eclipses is that they’re inconveniently scheduled in the middle of the night. Unless you’re a Wiccan and are super pumped about it happening on the same day as the Winter Solstice, there’s a good chance you missed it. In my case, I ate a bowl of chili for dinner and passed out far before it happened. If you were anything like me, you’ll be happy to watch the cool time lapse of the event after the jump.
