In Wolves clothing: Re-Imagining the Doll

How can I explain such a great use of space?  This a place that I want to visit as often as I can. Show Studios are forever changing around their shop to sell new innovative pieces of art and fashion. Show Studios Shop has a clean white but aged interior which acts as a perfect home to all the art hanging on its walls.

My favorite pieces in the current collection of In Wolves clothing: Re-Imagining the Doll are by Nick Knight. I love his styling it is always fresh and clean, he puts old and new together to create something somewhat imaginative.In Particular:

Davies St

Walking from Bond St station down Davies St I discovered many interesting little shops and galleries. If you are shopping on Oxford St I recommend you take a walk down and experience something spectacular. It is very easy to find: the road opposite HMV.
One of the most interesting places I found was an Antiques Market. It is spectacular! You walk in thinking there are a few small traders, then you find that there is a downstairs and a phenomenal amount of sellers, traders and buyers. http://www.graysantiques.com/

Damien Hirst

I didn't plan to visit the Gagosian Gallery but walking past it was like a moth to a flame! As soon as I saw an image of a skull Damien Hirst popped into my head, nothing else came to mind- not even death. His crystal scull is what did it for me ever since 2007. The pieces he is exhibiting are all for sale..... if only money wasn't an issue! Poisions and Remidies work perfectly togther in the small white Gallery space, your eyes dart from one to the other. His work has alot of deeper meanings; life and death being the most obvious.

Portrait of Dhyan

Lit by candle light, this image becomes characteristic of classic Renaissance paintings from the 14th century. I feel like the emotion should be the most important factor of these photographs as they are portraits, I hope that I portrayed this well.
