I discovered Matthew Besinger today via Lane Collins’ new blog. I quickly became a huge fan of his after seeing his Annex the Desert project and had to pass it on. It’s well worth taking the time to look through.
A few months ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Jacinda Russell when she was in town. We spoke about a project she’s been working on, called Nine Fake Cakes in Nine Bodies of Water. Inspired by Ed Ruscha (one of my personal heroes), Jacinda constructed nine artificial cakes, and is now traveling across the country to photograph them floating in bodies of water – swimming pools, lakes, rivers, etc. The entire journey has been documented on the blog. It’s a fantastic project, and well worth taking the time to dig through the archives.
Since our meeting in May, I have been finding postcards from Jacinda in my mailbox with photographs from the project. Here are some scans of the postcards Jacinda has been kind enough to send my way. When I received the first one, I had no idea she’d be sending more. I now have five in my possession, and can’t wait for more!
Adam Ekberg, Arrangement #3
I discovered Adam Ekberg via Daily Serving this morning. Absolutely amazing work.
It’s been a while since I’ve done a work of others post, so I thought I’d share City of Ambition by Ferit Kuyas (via EV+/-). These images seem to show an intersection of influence from Ed Burtynsky and Stephen Shore, which I love.
Kuyas’ other work is well worth browsing too, particularly aggloswiss and Archetypes.
Ian Van Coller, one of my esteemed undergraduate professors, was interviewed for Photolucida’s blog. A good read, worth taking a look at.
This has got to be one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while. You can visit the site here.

This image caught my attention, and I just had to pass it along. Phenomenal.
