PIERRE DAL CORSO LOVES YOU

I collect lots of images for my image bank, is like an obsession, but just recently I discovered that good part of the amazing editorial shots that I have came from this amazing photographer, Pierre dal Corso, really appreciate his style and view. Here are some of his photos (obviously I cannot forget about the stylists, MUA, hair stylists and everyone that worked with him to make these amazing images),

I think this is one of my favourites, made for Magazine FIASCO.

ps: I love the shoes. If someone knows who's from please tell me.

WHERE IS KIMIKO?!

Great artist Kimiko Yoshida is known for her amazing self portraits which are an inspiration and a treat for the eyes. Like Cindy Sherman, she uses her own body to make art.

ESCAPING REALITY

Watching old movies is like living a past life, when I see them I am sure that I was there sharing the same life. I wonder why is so amusing to watch past decades, why we few wonderment...

Cheers for "Singing in the rain" love it!

CREATION MEETS NO BOUNDARIES

There is always limits when it comes to creation, even if the intent is to surpass them. But mostly we don't. We practice to go further and further, see where our minds are going to take us. But everyone has boundaries, the difference is that some people have them really wide.

These days I had the opportunity to see the documentary about Leigh Bowery ( "The legend of Leigh Bowery") and I started thinking about it. He was a very enigmatic character and, for a first impression, seemed to have no boundaries at all. I asked my self: Why did he do those things? Why he was like that? I think he couldn't be any different, it's one of those people that have only one purpose in the world, he was born to be like this.

I guess when I see someone amazing I try to understand how they think and how they end up like that so than in my mind I see they are still human beings.

Leigh Bowery was an inspiration for a lot of people, Boy George, Lady Gaga,Gareth Pugh etc... and an infinitive inspiration for fashion shows. 

It's hard to talk about him, if I could summarize in a few words it would be EXPLOSION and ENDLESS , is better to watch for yourselves.

 

He is a mix of fantasy, endless creativity, fun, nightmares, scary..."everything is possible" feeling.
