I don’t know if people from other countries are aware but today Ireland became the first country in the world to vote yes for same sex marriage through popular vote and for a country which only decriminalised homosexuality 22 years ago this is kind of a huge fucking deal
When self driving cars become popular, drunk driving could mean waking up in a completely different city or even country because you drunkenly told your car to take you somewhere.
Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.
“Blindness Light” and Other Works from Javier Martin
Javier Martín is a visual artist who has developed most of his works in painting & in sculpture. He uses fashion portraits often taken by him to compose his artwork. Martin also uses a mix- ture of techniques that involve digital prints as part of his trademark.
As a self educated artist, he started to paint at young age & at the very premature age of 7, In 1994 Martin won the CAJA Madrid for Javier Martín young artist award. Two decades later Martin has re- ached an important statute & recognition in the art world by making individual & collective ex- hibitions in Europe, Asia, United Sates & Latin America.
Martin is mostly recognized by his works with pictures which highlight the blindness his mo- dels. The esthetic beauty of the works acquires a special value as a storyteller trying to set a point about how society judges without looking any further.
Another of his most famous art pieces is his Louis Vuitton Rifles. These particular art pieces are all made from the fabric of de-cosntructed Louis Vuitton bags. The result: guns, grenades and AK- 47’s. Leaving a strong message about the modern cult to a specific dreamy object, a bag transformed into a weapon or a weapon transformed into a bag.

5 years ago i was a fucking mess & now i’m a fucking mess but at peace with it and with cooler fashion sense
remember the softest days. remember the songs humming on the radio while you were with your best friends. remember the compliments about your pretty eyes, the times you laughed while crying and the most loving hugs. remember the dogs that ran up to see you, the color of people’s eyes in the sunlight, the way you felt when you watched your favorite film for the first time. remember your best achievements and the way you grew from your saddest evenings. your life is much more beautiful than you perceived when you remember all of the good things.
