Designer Teresa Lim is not your typical artist. Instead of capturing her zest for wanderlust on camera, she has become the ultimate DIY queen by constructing embroidered souvenirs. Detailing the several, beautiful landscapes, including Vietnam, Prague, Tokyo, and London, where she visited, Lim’s unique approach is intimate and sweet. She says on her website:
“I started the project late 2014 after I realised that with today’s state of the art technology, taking pictures becomes so easy. I wanted something more from my travels, to be able to take back a part of that place with me. When I’m done with a piece, I actually feel like I KNOW that place, and that gives me a huge sense of satisfaction that I think just taking a photo wouldn’t give.”
Although, she admitted to annoying some tourists, we are extremely tempted to try this super lovely technique of collecting memorabilia on our next trip.
Frédéric Lagrange recently teamed up with London-based ad agency Winkreative for a new ad campaign. Using photographic drone technology, Frédéric was able to capture the 500,000 square-foot Tsz Shan Monastery in the Tai Po District of Hong Kong. The luxury Buddhist monastery, funded by Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-shing, features several grand halls, expansive gardens, bulletproof rooms and the world’s tallest bronze Goddess of Mercy statue.
