Ways of Seeing

Drawing on the significance of being looked at and the way of understand how women care so much about how they look. John Berger had put it all together so well. 







We only know about ourselves when we began to realised from the visibility exterior of self.

Mirage of The Self will continue to offer ways to see yourself and understand the value of being oneself.

Stay tune in front of the mirror for next chapter!

INFLUENCERS



To become one of the influencer, there is no rule and recipe. It have to come from inside, the passion of doing and being who you are. What is feel right for you. The real coolness is when nobody looking at you, you're all by yourself. It's a natural process but you have to reach for it.

INFLUENCERS is a short documentary that explores what it means to be an influencer and how trends and creativity become contagious today in music, fashion and entertainment.

The film attempts to understand the essence of influence, what makes a person influential without taking a statistical or metric approach.

The film is a Polaroid snapshot of New York influential creatives (advertising, design, fashion and entertainment) who are shaping today's pop culture.
"Influencers" belongs to the new generation of short films, webdocs, which combine the documentary style and the online experience.

Shoes Face

Never come close to see what your shoes face might be.
Never know who actually put on that shoes, never meet your
 true reflection.

There might be a solution...

Recognition of one shadow may lead to constructive dimension of self.

Sun Sun Sun!



I recently working on something between daylights and the ground, to actually see that my feet still standing on stiff surface. Sunday was very sunny so I took my fingers for a walk.

The obvious is not to be identified.

Power of Transformation

I read an essay today from Showstudio.com written by Indigo Clarke
and I think it's great to share here.

A thought that has often occurred to me over the years, ever since I first realised my love of fashion as a crazed tutu-and-novelty-John-Lennon-spectacles-loving child and more acutely as a teenager, is the way we use fashion to escape reality or immerse ourselves in it, and to conceal/camouflage our bodies, or reveal them.

Clothing has always had such an effect on me because of its power to transform not just how I look, but how I feel. I’ve often said that in the same way a beautiful, artfully designed and sun-filled space can positively affect our mood, so can the clothing we wear. People talk about the frivolous nature of fashion, and when it’s compared with other art forms, it’s generally considered unimportant. I don’t love the whole ‘status’ thing about fashion, and definitely don’t care about labels – I love what I love, be it a vintage piece, a designer dress or something I knocked up on the sewing machine. I don’t think fashion is important because it’s an industry with a lot of influence and money behind it, but I do think it’s important because it is the art and architecture we wear, the armour that can make us feel brave and empowered, like the person we want to be.
As a teen, I loved to wear my hair cropped super-short and brightly coloured, piercings, little dresses, doc boots and flea-market finds under five dollars – a pretty good escape from the body-con beach and bikini reality that is living in Sydney by the ocean. As I’ve gotten older, the desire to immerse myself in my own little world of music, art and crazy fashion dissipated as the realities of life, work, rent set in…. And while personal style might change its course and become more understated with maturity, fashion never loses its ability to transform. On a bad day to be able to entirely change your mood and outlook, to put something on that you feel transforms your body, and in so doing, your mind, is a powerful – and important – thing.
