” I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today… A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future. “

Irina Werning is an Argentine photographer with the brilliant ideas for “BACK TO THE FUTURE “. See more here.

Jordi Colomer is a Spanish architect and artist who started his formation at the EINA, Art and Design School in Barcelona where he studied History of Art and Architecture. He was interested in architectural planning in Urbanism. That’s why his performance lies in the public space, making video which comport sculpture, scenography and architecture.

Then he made some videos across Brazil, France, Romania, Japan, Yemen and Mexico showing unprofessional actors filmed in architectural spaces wide or desert.

He also made an interesting work about the anarchism in city centers named ANARCHITEKTON. Colomer tries to make a good critic of our city centers in a simple way: making models and running away bringing them in front of the building or the space.

Visit his website and follow him! You can see him in the ARCHILAB Center in Orleans.

Julia Laub and Cedric Kiefer of Onformative have torn perception of an image from the viewer. This Berlin based design studio used Processing to create their interactive illusion.  Sensing distance, a viewer will see their own image in the LED screen, but then soon notice their image spiraling into itself.

“We became interested in the observer’s personal view and in »re-projecting« this. The installation reacted to and changed with the viewer’s movement and, hence, his perspective and point of view. The illusion of a LED screen was destroyed and the RGB elements dissolved to form new, translated images and, thus, a transformed »reality«.”

Our friend Victoria has been drawing and doing street art for the few last years. Originally from Toronto she now lives in London. Getting her inspiration from discoveries and exploring the world, her drawings are like tales of life, animals and people. It seems as if nature is in most of her works, obsessive, to catch everything back. Raw and sincere, definitely to follow.
