“These are the central concepts of my artistic essence. The transformation of motives therefore is a clearing of reality through optical reduction and refraction of contents. In this way it allows each observer an exempt view on the essential marrow. In this connection my process follows strictly the etymological translation of the word kaleidoscope, which has its roots in the greek language and means ‘to see beautiful forms’.” -Boris Draschoff, Berlin, Germany borisdraschoff.com

Paradise Lost, photographed by Nick Knight
Roses being shot in the head. Striking and oddly wrong feeling. Even though we always pick roses, make retarded little crowns and smash them into books.

Paradise Lost for i-D #259 October 2005, photographed by Nick Knight source:

It’s not as soon as we would like but hey, shush it’s better than nothing right? Do you think the series will be the same? Or will they make severe changes that could either go great or horrible. Now if they could only do this for Dexter s Lab and Courage the Cowardly Dog as well. I would die, somehow self combust with joy. What cartoons do you believe need to comeback?

Below are bags from Burberry Prorsum Fall/Winter 2014 Details, LFW. who incorporate this painted accessory trend. Do you find this trend ridiculous or uniquely stylish?
