Shimozono Eiko's Kizuna

I came across this photo exhibit Kizuna online. It's beautiful while a little bit scary that makes you feel a tingle of excitement.

It's a collection of portraits, whom photographer Shimozono Eiko asked people on the street to take part in. I first thought she picked people who seem to be living with some thoughts against the world, but as the photographer said and as she went on with this project, she captured a variety of different people depending on her state of mind.

Here are some photos I especially liked... the first one I think, is especially beautiful.


This is the author. She also looks mystical and like a Japanese doll that would wake up at night and walk around the house...

New shoes from Rabbit HK

I got these shoes in preparation for this summer. As I am determined to buy local stuff as much as possible, I went back to Rabbit in Causeway Bay and bought these old mother looking red sandals, which I dearly hope won't make my legs look fat, and white sandals that the shopkeeper told me were intentionally dirtied (really?).

Lunch break apartment therapy

During a lunch break in the office cubicle or when I'm really beat from overwork, Apartment Therapy can be so therapeutic.

This apartment is extremely small but utilizes space in a genius way. I couldn't believe at the size of the apartment (look at the last sketch!).

Really interesting how he did not use the long room as the living room and bedroom as the meeting area.
