Arielle Bobb-Willis – Keep the Kid Alive

Arielle Bobb-Willis’s first monograph is a vivid exploration of colour, gesture and self-expression. Keep the Kid Alive transforms the streets of New Orleans, New York and Los Angeles into surreal stages, where unusual poses, saturated colour and playful compositions blur the boundaries between fashion and art photography.

At the heart of Bobb-Willis’s practice is a celebration of Black expression as expansive, imaginative and unrestricted. Alongside her photographs, the book brings together conversations with artists, stylists and creatives reflecting on how to preserve the curiosity and freedom of their “inner kid.”

Esmeralda de Réthy & Jean-Louis Perreau – Monsieur Dior et nous : 1947–1957 
A rare look inside the world of Christian Dior during the first decade of the house, from its founding in 1947 to Dior’s death in 1957. Through photographs, testimonies and archival material, Monsieur Dior et nous follows the life of the maison from the creation of garments and the ateliers to fittings, presentations, sales and the everyday traditions of the house.

Rather than focusing solely on Dior’s designs, the book offers an intimate portrait of the people and processes behind one of the most influential fashion houses of the twentieth century.

Masao Yamamoto – Saru

Masao Yamamoto’s Saru brings together more than twenty years of photographs of the Japanese macaques of Jigokudani Park.

Returning each winter to the snow-covered landscape of Nagano, Yamamoto observes the monkeys as they play, embrace, rest and gather in the natural hot springs. Quiet and deeply contemplative, these images become photographic haiku: intimate fragments of a fragile world, where animal life and human emotion seem unexpectedly close.

Restock day! these books have arrived in store, come give them a new home!

Dear God, The Parthenon is still broken, @_yorgos_lanthimos_

Created on the set of the film « Poor Things » in Budapest, this book is more than just a behind-the-scenes. It’s an independent work in which the artist invites us to rediscover the world he created, in a more meditative way, shifting between black and white and highly saturated colors, and between reality and fiction.

Sistermoon, @sirikaur

Artist Siri Kaur illustrates the cycles of life and transformation through her youngest sister, Simran as the central focus of « Sistermoon ».

Recurring family figures grow and transform as they move between childhood, adulthood, and motherhood, while Kaur’s landscapes and connection to nature infuse the images with a sense of magical spirituality.

Strangers Need Strange Moments Together: Designing Interaction for Public Spaces, Mouna Andraos and Melissa Mongiat @dailytlj

Mouna Andraos and Melissa Mongiat create interactive artworks and narrative experiences for public spaces around the world. Blending technology, storytelling, and performance, their work explores new ways of connecting people and reimagining public space. In Strangers Need Strange Moments Together, they invite practitioners, urbanists, educators, policymakers, and citizens to imagine more joyful, resilient, and connected urban communities.

Beyond the Image: On Visual Culture in the Twenty-First Century, @alessandrosbordoni777

In an age of deepfakes, « brainrot, » and endless scrolling, images are no longer just a means of representation: they have become objects of consumption, circulation, and profit.

Beyond the Image explores how visual culture is being reshaped by digital technologies, from social media and video monetization to artificial intelligence. As images push against the limits of these systems, they may also open up new ways of looking and invite us to see beyond the screen.

I had experienced certain symptoms since early childhood. Sensations that were essential to constituting who I am, yet which I felt were not worth sharing with others. For now, I will try listing them in the order I can recall:
    •    Colors and shapes appear distorted.
    •    Things I see feel either infinitely far away or extremely close.
    •    An image replays in my mind where parts that are black and white appear fluorescent.
    •    An image replays in my mind where hard, needle-like sharp objects and soft, mochi-like objects intersect.
    •    Mainly when lying down and looking up at the ceiling, the four corners of the room contract sharply.
    •    The faces of people in front of me appear enormous.
    •    The flow of time feels extremely fast or slow.
    •    During conversation, a certain phrase repeats rapidly in my mind.

These symptoms occurred routinely and naturally in my daily life, so I hardly ever spoke to those around me about them, and even when I finally did, they neither understood nor showed any interest. Yet, as a child, I think I felt more, or at least as much, a sense of being myself as the loneliness of not being able to share these experiences. In my daily life, I was rarely consciously aware of the symptoms, but they also never disappeared. And so, I grew up without knowing their true nature.

About seven or eight years ago, one day while browsing X (SNS), I came across a summary article. It was about a condition called “Alice in Wonderland Syndrome.” The cuteness of the name, and some kind of premonition at the time, led me to click the link. As I read through the symptoms, almost all of them matched what I had experienced, and I was astonished. I can still vividly recall the shock I felt at that moment.

I learned that Alice in Wonderland Syndrome is a condition where, despite no abnormalities in vision, objects appear a different size than they actually are, and that it manifests various other symptoms such as abnormalities in color perception and time perception. True to its name, it was named after Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and it seems that Carroll himself, as well as Ryunosuke Akutagawa, al by @capturism.studio

At our Flagship, our exhibitions extend beyond the gallery walls and into the studio itself. With each show, a dedicated filter that translates the exhibited artist’s work becomes part of the photo studio system.
The artwork enters your image, and your image enters the artwork.

Choose the exhibition option, take your self-portrait, and with a new composition.
Your portrait immersed in the artwork.

Exists only here, only now.
