Paul Gustave Doré
Christian Imagery
Every belief system has to offer a good story. The more poetic and sensational the more likely to find followers. Paul Gustave Doré‘s way of depicting Christian imagery is a great example.
Storm Thorgerson
Taken by Storm
Thorgerson’s metaphorical language to me feels like as if Magritte would have been into photography instead of painting.
Justine Kurland
Escape into a better world
To me these pictures present a futuristic vision rather than a look back at our savage ancestors.

The Society of the Spectacle
This film is based on the 1967 book of the same name. It’s a radical critique of mass marketing and its role in the alienation of modern society.

Makishi
Death dances for living people
The western culture is devoid of meaningful rituals that help you grow through the stages of life. I think that’s the reason why I’m so fascinated when I find it in other cultures.
