New York based, Japanese photographer/artist Shinichi Maruyama has released his latest series of work, Gardens.

Photographing paint, mid air in an attempt to replicate the aesthetic found in Zen gardens he has created a stunning series of pieces. Which while he humbly insists that he is “far” from the mark none the less manages to encapsule the true spirit of the aesthetic, that in many ways surpasses the original. At least in my opinion.

“I have tried to represent this feeling I get from Zen gardens in my artwork. Although I am still far from those enlightened monks who labor in nature, my actions of repeatedly throwing liquid into the air and photographing the resulting shapes and sculptural formations over and over-endlessly-could be considered a form of spiritual practice to find personal enlightenment.” – Shinichi Maruyama.

See the rest of the series here on Shinichi’s site. Or head to Bruce Silverstien NYC, tomorrow night at 6pm to see it in person.

Your Simple But Powerful Guide to Corporate Social Responsibilities

This was a very interesting commission i got before the beginning of 2011.

While i was painting the piece which took about 6 days to complete, i had dramas with counsel, cops & corporates passing by and telling me off.

End of the day i got praised by all of the above. But after a week i got a phone call saying that the piece was sand blasted off by the council / train station.

The reason was because the agreement of the project was not granted properly by both client and council, oh well.. i got paid anyway.

Enjoy the pictures.

Check it out if you are around Adelaide on that date.
