Train Hopping Youth by Mike Brodie [PHOTOS]

Check out this wonderful set of photos by Mike Brodie. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, so I imagine there is a part of everyone that would love to join these kids and live on their own terms. Check out this wonderful set of photos by Mike...

RVA #12: The Fashion Of Photographer Marcus Hyde

Looking at Marcus Hyde’s photos, I can’t help but wonder what led the man who started out shooting rocks and trees for his high school darkroom class into the realm of fashion photography. Despite its association with fashion, much of his work, in my opinion, has...

TEXAS BEACH by popcatchland [PHOTOS]

New photos from our friend and photographer Nick Ghobashi. Nestled in the back of a city neighborhood, next to a graveyard, this little slab of paradise gets its name from the nearby trail that leads to the beach. It's not really much of a beach, more like a lil sand...

RVA No. 11: Josiah Marroquin

Apparently Virginia Beach has some things going for it. From what I can tell, the place is ripe with youthful rage and wild-spirited party animals. The whole scene is either obscenely weird or weirdly obscene, and while the boys and girls from the Tidewater are...

Richmond’s Rich Ink: Exploring Local Tattoo Art at The Valentine

As a former history major who wrote my senior thesis about theater as a form of edification for Richmond society (what was I smoking?), I felt like a hypocrite for not visiting the Valentine History Center since moving to RVA. Having heard heaps of praise about what...

SXSW 2012: The Photos.

BFD 2010 :: Street Portraits (Best Friends Day Edition)

These photos were taken during and after the Andrew W.K./Municipal Waste show in a shallow puddle of mud under a bridge. I wasn’t one of the lucky thousand to get a ticket, so I set up a white background outside the show and experienced the music vicariously. Not all of the photos are of people who were at the show, but who cares? A Friday night...

PEX FEST 2010 by Skye V.D. Osten

This past 4th of July, we piled into the car and rode up to Maryland for the mind-bending PEX FEST 2010 (Philadelphia Experiment Festival 2010). You won't find a gathering of stranger people anywhere. Bold, beautiful, creative people roaming on one campground surrounded by friendly mystical tents, giant sound systems pumping bass, large scale...

Faces, Identity, and Photographs: Hide and Seek by Frederique Daubal

When does your face become a mask? If you could wear the same expression ceaselessly, and only change it when you want to, would you? I can't tell you what inspired Frederique Daubal in this work, but I can tell you of what it invokes in me. The idea of wearing photographs as masks is not new, but this application is. The slits cut make the work...
