Natsumi Hayashi

”A sweet-looking Japanese girl who, one day, decided to take self-portraits..of herself levitating. She can be spotted in and around Tokyo, equipped with her SLR and her self-timer. When she feels the moment strike, she presses the shutter button down and then, quite literally, “jumps” into place. What I love most about her shots is that they don’t feel forced. Natsumi has a way of making us feel as though she naturally levitates throughout life. When I asked her how others react to her jumping around Tokyo, here is a funny story that she shared. “One day, when I was jumping at a famous sightseeing spot in western Tokyo, workers at a souvenir shop were frightened by how I was jumping. They were whispering things like ‘Is the girl mentally ill’ and ‘Do we need to call the police?’ “So I stopped jumping and apologized to them by saying, ‘I am taking jumping photos for my wedding party’s slide show.’ Their faces turned bright red, and they said things like ‘Oh dear!’ and ‘Congratulations!’ and even ‘Keep jumping!’

Prenden otra vez las luces en las casas, la ropa interior de esta noche extraña.”

“This is nothing new
No, no just another phase of finding
what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
But like a new disease, Lord she’s still too young to treat”

Visual Reprise: 3D Paintings

Amazing paintings that defies tradition. Japanese artist Shintaro Ohata fuses his paintings with his color-perfect sculptures. These compositions make for quite the compelling installation. At first glance, these painting seem perfectly great, but take a step back and watch the visual presentation as the sculpture compliments the work itself. The first piece is just lovely, the sunset backdrop that corresponds with the yellow, orange gradient works flawlessly against the subject and cat. The second piece is my favorite, the cascading blue, violet markings makes for an interesting element in the piece. It sets a perfect mood for the girl and her food. The third piece is just as remarkable as well, the brown and light green creates the illusion of fall. I love all of these workings, be sure to check out more of Shintaro’s work after the jump.

After a long time, a long , long time, I give up. Not waiting anymore. As it turns out, living is just the beginning, and so the beginning is over. I’m cat of nobody. I’m not even cat. I’m not even I. It’s warm. It’s light. It goes on and on and on and on…

“Permítame que le recuerde que todavía ayer había personas que morían y a nadie se le pasaba por la cabeza que eso fuera alarmante, Es lógico, lo habitual es morir, y morir sólo es alarmante cuando las muertes se multiplican, una guerra, una epidemia, por ejemplo, Es decir, cuando se salen de la rutina, Podría decirse así, Pero, ahora que no se encuentra a nadie dispuesto a morir, es cuando usted nos pide que no nos alarmemos,convendrá conmigo que, por lo menos, es bastante paradójico.”

- Las Intermitencias de la Muerte, José Saramago.
