OBSESSED with this: Kasper Sonne
In 2008 Christopher Anderson became a father and began to document his everyday life with his son Atlas. ‘These images are my response to the most personal and universal experiences of all: the birth of a child’, says Anderson. At the same time his father was diagnosed with lung cancer. This pictures revolve around life and death, while the birth of his son gave his own role as a son a new meaning. The series not only shows snapshots but thoughtful compositions that resemble paintings and radiate a special peace and strength. He calls this series ‘A document of love and reflection on the seasons of life’.
Anderson is a member of Magnum Photos and photographer for the New York Magazine. So far he has published several books. His most recent book ‘Son’ is available at Kehrer Verlag Heidelberg .
In his earlier series, Jeremy Olson, an artist based in Brooklyn, New York, was thinking a lot about desire, or rather, the construction of it through media. He was interested in playing with the notion of the traditional portrait painting in relation to fashion-type advertising imagery, and the disappearance of the actual subject. He was trying to push the already-present sense of alienation even further by using a kaleidoscopic fracturing. An attempt to break down the face into a spectrum of beauty that couldn’t cohere into anyone identifiable, simultaneously violent and charming.

Young artistic photographer Mark Dorf created his latest series ‘Path’, which explores the ideas of new technology and digital language in the human context through digital photography. Within the images he focuses on using strict geometric and synthetic form to contrast against the landscape in which they are manifested; a comparison of language. Focusing on the landscape and our modern digital language, Mark Dorf seeks to understand our aggressive capture and digitization of our surroundings through very basic use of pure color and the native tools of contemporary digital imaging that we use to create meaning and manipulation in mass media.
‘I specifically find interest in the ways in which we have become dependent upon this technology to help aid us in our navigation of our every day and how it affects our perception of the world around us all socially, emotionally, and physically – it is no longer about logging on or off, but rather living within and creating harmony with the realms and constructs of the internet for our newest generation of inhabitants.’
Photo artist Caras Ionut lives in the world of Photoshop where he digitially assembles surreal landscapes and portraits using largely his own photography. These are some of my favorites but you can see much more over on500px. Ionut also offers all kinds of tutorials and workshops available through his website. (via So Super Awesome)

Korean artist Seung Mo Park (previously) continues to amaze with his astonishingly crafted figurative sculptures made with tightly wrapped layers of aluminum wire based on fiberglass forms. The works shown here are part of the Brooklyn-based artist’s Human series where he recreates the delicate wrinkles and folds of clothing as well as the sinuous musculature of the human body in metallic layers remeniscent of tree rings. He’s also sculpted bicycles, musical insturments and other forms as part of his Object series. (via My Modern Met)
