Witty Historic Histograms

by Kristie Cham

If you’re a minimalist-movie-poster fan, these historic pictograms by H-57 fall right into that cool category – except it’s with famous historic characters. It’s history simplified with a smile.

H-57 is a design studio and advertising agency based in Milan, Italy.

STELLAR

by Kristie Cham

“This project began from the theory that humans are made of cosmic matter as a result of a stars death. I created imagery that showcased this cosmic birth through the use of dust and reflective confetti to create galaxies. The models organic bodily expressions as they are frozen in time between the particles suggest their celestial creation. In addition, space and time is heightened by the use of three-dimensional animated gifs. Their movement serves as a visual metaphor to the spatial link we share with stars as well as their separateness through time.”

- Texan photographer Ignacio Torres

Material Word | David Welch

by Kristie Cham

‘Material World’ by David Welch is a highly relevant series of photo installations, which reflects the extreme consumption and material wealth of todays man.

“My work is a response to this contemporary consumer milieu. By treating artifacts of consumer culture as readymades, I create assemblages to form pseudo monuments, or totems, that serve as precarious externalizations of culture as social biography. The totems speak of accumulation and materiality and encourage debate about consumption, media, class, gender and the ways in which we feel compelled to consume.”
