Marina Abramovic’s frequent companion

Posted on May 11th, 2010 • Filed under mediarosa • 1 Comment

Maybe it’s just an image that pops while I’m connected with Marina. Let’s say it’s an image of someone I love deeply, and then this creates the emotion, the tears just come out. Most of the time it’s tears of joy. You’re just being and thinking about somebody or something that’s important in your life. And then just acknowledging this person or situation and moving on into being present because yeah, the tears come, but I don’t want to cry for the entire sitting. I want to move on and continue to be with Marina, to be present.

Morell – Camera Obscura

Posted on September 12th, 2009 • Filed under mediarosa • 1 Comment

Here’s another small, but fascinating set of Camera Obscura images, this time from photographer Abelardo Morell. Some beautiful landscapes, made to be intimate by bringing them inside, others more of a nod to Camera Obscura as the origin of photography.

Lets Take the High Line

Posted on September 6th, 2009 • Filed under mediarosa • No Comments

The High Line is just around the corner from our offices, currently located in the Chelsea Market, and I finally made my way there for a walking tour. I shot a few photos while I was there but these pics from the High Line Flickr Pool provide a little more variety – but what’s up with the copyright on all these pics from the Flickr Pool. None of them have a Creative Commons license. None!

There’s more going on besides a walk on the High Line. Check out highline.org for events happening in and around the park.

Check out the camera obscura images from Flickr user mauricioasial asial. I’ve always loved this idea. It’s like, or really is, being inside the camera.
