"The emotions are sometimes so strong that I work without knowing it. The strokes come like speech."
-- Vincent Van Gogh

Beautiful ongoing project by Russian artist Leonid Tishkov and photographer Boris Bendikov.
“Private Moon” is a visual poem telling the story of a man who met the Moon and stayed with her for the rest of his life.
“Each photograph is a poetic tale, a little poem in its own right. Therefore each picture is accompanied by my own verse, which I wrote when I drew my sketches for the photographs. So it turns out that the Moon overcomes our loneliness in the universe uniting many of us around it.” - Leonid Tishkov

The Ghost in the Machine by Erika Iris Simmons
“The Ghost in the Machine” series was inspired by some strange ideas. How at one level we are cellular beings and another we are a single “self.” The single cassette tape I thought of as representing the mind. The tape ribbon represents our thoughts, the data within. Taking that data – those bits of memory – and rearranging them to form what we see as a face is my way of finding a “ghost in the machine.” I also liked the fact that when you look at a portrait like Jimi Hendrix out of a cassette tape, you can almost hear the music in your head – so your own “data” is responding to what you see.
