Nožnice a kus papiera v rukách umelca dávajú okoliu nový význam!

Umelec pracujúci v Londýne Rich McCor sa venuje najmä fotografovaniu a vizuálnemu umeniu. Vystupuje pod prezývkou paperboyo, ktorá vystihuje jeho lásku k papieru. Vďaka rozličným tvarom, ktoré sám kreslí, vystrihuje a vyrezáva práve z papiera, premieňa známe pamiatky vo veľkomestách na nové, nečakané kompozície. Z Kolosea vytŕčajú chápadlá chobotnice a šikmú vežu v Pise objíma námorník z obdobia 2. svetovej vojny. Často sa inšpiruje scénami z populárnych filmov alebo prácou iných umelcov. Na Instagrame ho sleduje viac ako štvrť milióna ľudí. Viac jeho práce si môžete pozrieť v predošlom článku.

Have you ever heard of the word naumachia? Until I got to Rome I hadn’t either, but it’s a word the Romans used to describe simulated naval fights – they were like gladiator battles on a bigger and wetter scale. Sometimes special structures were built and other times lakes were used, but there is evidence that the colosseum was once turned into a gladiatorial water world for a naumachia (the more you say that word, the more addictive it becomes). According to the Roman historian Cassius Dio, a sea fight took place in the amphitheatre in 86 AD. Ships, weapons and thousands of men were brought in and since every effort was made to make a naumachia (I bet you’re saying it out loud now) a colossal event, even sea creatures were shipped in from around the globe – hence why I put an octopus inside the colosseum, because y’know when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Time to hop back on board Royal Princess and head up the coast to the port of Livorno to visit Florence. (Head to @princesscruises to see more images) #comebacknew

We’ve docked in Barcelona for the day and if you’ve been paying attention you may have picked up on the fact that quite a few of my cut-outs on this trip have had an aquatic/sea theme as an ode to being on a cruise ship for the past nine days. So here in Barcelona it made sense to do a photo with the Torre Agbar, home to the Barcelona water company. This is the last official stop on my cruise with the Princess team, however they’ve kindly let me stay on board so that I can get off in the Azores (somewhere I’ve always wanted to go), so I’ll be sharing a couple of photos from the islands next #comebacknew #PrincessCruises #PassionPassport #TravelAwesome #igTravel #WanderLust #Travel #Holiday #Vacation #Cruise #CruiseLife #InstaCruise #StreetArtLovers #ForcedPerspective #Funny #TravelStoke #Paper #PaperArt #Art #Silhouette #Penguin #Barcelona #Spain #TorreAgbar

This is Urquhart castle and the vast waters of Loch Ness. Around 750 feet deep, it's home to more water than all the lakes and rivers in England & Wales combined. It's also home to one of the most famous legends in the world- The Loch Ness Monster. The first organised search for the monster was in 1934 when twenty men were paid £2 a day to be 'monster watchers'. Since then many people have searched, including Dr Rines (who helped locate the wreck of The Titanic) and even Thatcher's government considered an official hunt involving bringing dolphins over from America over to help look for it. The largest effort was in 1987, when a team of researchers spent £1 million on a search effort involving sonar and camera tech. Three of their sonar contacts showed a creature “larger than a shark but smaller than a whale”. Whilst nothing has ever been confirmed, in 2005 one hundred athletes didn't leave anything to chance when they took part in the Scottish Triathlon. They were each insured for £1 million against bites from the Loch Ness Monster #LochNess #Scotland #Nessie #LochNessMonster #Inverness #UrquhartCastle
