I came across these Hans Silvester photographs recently and was mesmerized by the colors, textures and graphic elements represented on the Ethopian Omo Tribe's bodies. There seems to be a story behind every one of those lines, shapes and botanical head dresses. After seeing these photographs, I thought there would be no better way than to translate the colors and textures into the other areas of our life that most represent the best of color and texture: Outfits & Spaces.

COLLECTED LAUNCH

Jessica and Krista know how to throw a party. The Collected launch took place at the 118 WINSTON, a multi purpose space in downtown L.A. designed to explore new ways of integrating art, commerce, and community. The space hosts art exhibits, progressive yoga classes, special events (etc.) all while promoting local and international artists. This particular night the space was filled with art, artists of all kinds, friendly faces, laughter, wine, cheese, hors d'ouevres, and the celebration of the premiere issue of Collected!

COLLECTED MAG

Have you gotten a chance to flip through the premiere issue of Collected? If you haven't yet, you're in for a treat. Beauty abounds! I attended the launch party on Friday and got to hang out with my some of my favorite people. Pictures to come! For now, check out a few photos of the talented ladies behind Collected on my photoblog. Hope your Wednesday is off to a good start! -J.
