Justin Walker is a spectacular photographer and exceptionally rad cat. He straddles a fine line. A line we know well; the delicate balance between managing and producing commercial work and finding the time to conceive and create personal work. Amen to those so conscious. The three of us spent a chunk of this morning perusing his portfolio. It’s quite impressive.

Nice little video whether you’re familiar with AJ’s work or not. We’ve been following his career for some time now (he used to have a studio at the old Andenken building). I’ve seen a few of his later pieces at David B. Smith Gallery and would love to pick one up in the future.

We just got wind that Chai and Diego (aka DGPH) have finished up their first comic “TOPO, ASOMBROSAS AVENTURAS / AMAZING ADVENTURES.” In their own words:
“It’s a 64 colour pages, soft cover, matte pages, filled with nonsese stories about the world we ve created. It comes with a sticker sheet to use in the book!”
Sounds awesome. “TOPO” will be prereleased at the Taipei Toy Festivat in Taiwan (July 9th), One UP! in Japan (July 18th) and Comicon San Diego (July 23rd - Munkyking booth). Otherwise you’ll have to wait until August 13th.

Jason DeCaires Taylor Underwater Sculpture from Christian Sandino-Taylor on Vimeo.
“With natural reefs under threat throughout the globe’s oceans, the sculptures act as the perfect stable surfaces needed for coral to grow. Fish, turtles, sea urchins, sponges and sharks have also started to recolonise the area.” Via - Huck Magazine
