Unfortunately we hit a road block as there was a bit of a language barrier, (remind me to learn Russian next time I’ve got a spare moment) nevertheless, It would be a shame not to show some of Ilya’s amazing work – and besides, the quality speaks for itself!

Guy Sargent – Photographer

Photographer, Guy Sargent from West London gives us a taste of his amazing skill to capture the stillness of a landscape as well as the splendour and grandness of some of today’s architecture. ‘What lies beneath the surface’ displays, from across Europe, landscapes as their creator intended – natural, untamed and free from the impact of humankind. From the following interview you will begin to get a feel for Sargent’s passion for his profession, “There are elements of romanticism, the spiritual & political in this work. In a way I just want to say as much as I can using as little information as possible.”
Guy Sargent has an uncanny knack for capturing feeling in his work; whether it be the quiet calmness and serenity of an undisturbed,  rocky English shore – or the humbled, awe inspired feeling when one stands in the shadow of the Grande Arche…

Frequently I fantasize of living in New York, but the weather keeps pulling me back to Cali.

Mattias Adolfsson – Illustrator

Swedish Illustrator, Mattias Adolfsson has kindly allowed us to show some of his impressive work from a series called ‘architecture.’ Adolfsson’s unique style is largely imaginative (though he does traditional works as well) and has the ability to stir memories and emotions like something straight out of a childhood dream. His sketches explore the bizarre and the dreamlike in a beautiful, intricate cartoonish way, infused with care and precision. Adolfsson can also boast one of the most popular sketch blogs on the net and has travelled the world with his work – His last exhibit in downtown Melbourne!

Luis Porem – Rbg Rainbow glasses – international designer

I have recently been in touch with industrial designer Luis Porem, who has kindly allowed me to post some of his stunning work –

Born in Lisbon, Portugal and raised in Alenquer – Luis Porem has presented some outstanding intuitive work, he describes the green valley of Alenquer as the place where he “fell in love with things… From the Multicoloured river pebbles, to the abandoned mills that rest on the top of the maountains, to the roads painted in autumnal colours, by the leaves blow away by the wind, to the sweet music of the night..”
