Mystery Writer Scrawling over Dubai

andyrichards — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 07:57:25 +0000

I’ll be the first to say that Dubai for all its pros and cons isn’t the place I’d expect to find witty graffiti or graffiti of any kind really. However I was pleasantly surprised one evening in Tecom to find the little gem above. Playful and perhaps prophetic the messages can be found in multiple locations mostly sprayed on construction site hoardings and concrete walls. Clandestine in their placement but poignant in their statements the scrawls sway between the playfully random and the grandiose commenting on the modern human experience. The anonymity of the writer is both admirable and in this particular city understandable, the only defining feature of continuity between these messages is the line and triangle. There might be more incidental messages dotted around the city related to this writer so keep them peeled. In the meantime, enjoy!

Zaha Hadid Capital Hill Residence

andyrichards — Mon, 05 Sep 2011 08:49:51 +0000

Its not often that we post architecture but this wonderful creation by Zaha Hadid Architects simply couldn’t be passed bye. Located on the north-face hillside in Barvikha surrounded by pine and birch trees, sits this amorphous geometric villa. Part grounded in the hill side and part elevated to offer emotive views of the landscape it is a veritable modern castle hideaway for the more aggressive budget! Beautiful building enhanced by a breathtaking location. We love it. Aller!

The Dark Art: Andrej Dragan

andyrichards — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 12:10:13 +0000

Hugely provocative images from Polish Photographer Andrej Dragan. Almost intimidating in their expression of hightened surreality and darkened further in the eerie contexts of mutilation and deformation. Powerful work that certainly captivates. Enjoy!
