"A vision of the duality of human nature and the struggle between reason and emotions. These masterpieces present us with a surreal world where logic and emotion are at odds. The subjects on them are caught between the rational and the irrational, leading us to contemplate - what makes us human." —@the_rtst

"I felt time drift past slowly as the light left the valley. Caught up in a quiet and pensive moment amidst the towering giants of Zion National Park. As daylight turned into darkness the stars began to reveal themselves. Tiny burning fires, millions of miles away... and yet still bright enough to stand out against a valley filled with the artificial light of passers-by. Scenes like this help me to understand our true place in the universe. Though small and insignificant we sometimes seem, we must always seek to earn our place amongst the stars." —@bryanminear

"The photographs that comprise American Reminiscence were made in small towns, and cities across the rural American countryside that have often been forgotten. These images act as an exploration of a past life, while serving as a beacon to future generations." —@nathanabauman

"Inert, inertia. Some of the sensations that are brought to us when we are observing something extraordinary, something surprising." —@LuisDalvan
Maciej Drabik
Conceptual Artist
"Crater City, loosely inspired by The Incal graphic novel was created in 2014. It has everything I love in art - monumental architecture, a lot of detail and was created using my favorite technique which is heavily based on using 3d programs along with overpainting it a bit later - technique that gives me most freedom and satisfaction." —@NegativeVibrat1

"Street style fashion can be defined as a particular style of clothing that originated from the British fashion culture. It is a comprehensive approach to fashion which includes styles that intersect, differ from mainstream fashion and is based on individualism, with any strict and restricted focus on trends. This particular silhouette emphasized the female figure, which replaced the basic ‘utility look’ that was seen commonly during the wartime period. The hourglass shape had taken advantage of the excess of the fabric that had been scarcely available during the second world war. This kind of phenomena has been researched for a long time which revealed the importance of young people’s street styles, post the war period which is also said to have a link to the baby boomers born and represented the new sociocultural category also known as teenager – who has money to spend and are an important source of motivation." —@Crisstianaaf
