Textless movie posters
Imgur user joinyouinthesun has taken over 80 movie posters and removed all text from them. The end result is a beautiful graphic poster focusing on the imagery. The movies range from classics like The Godfather, to more recent films such as Interstellar. I’ve pulled a few of my favourites and you can see the full series here.
sometimes, crying is the only way our eyes can speak when our mouth cant explain how broken our heart really is.
Street artist: Guido Van Helten
Guido creates an emotional and touching art by using photographic references, which are traditional to the place and add a vibe of nostalgia. The portraits just born are remanence of a vintage fragility and sensitivity. When talking about graffiti he denoted:
“There’s a drive with graffiti that’s hard to replicate anywhere else.”
“What inspired me was that people were going to see it. It’s out on the street, you see it immediately; it’s going to be judged immediately.” (interview on @widewalls-artmagazine )

A California artist Alexa Meade is turning people into paintings. She skips the canvas in her artwork. Instead, she physically paints on human subjects - on their clothes, their shoes, their skin, their hair. Then she places them in a real-life setting and photographs it. The result is an image that looks like a painting within a photo. It’s an optical illusion that blurs the lines of where reality ends and art begins.
I like for my work to create this living element. When you look at a photo of one of my installations, you see the painted thing but then you actually see the person coming through it.
