On Friday, instead of participating in the shopping frenzy, my mother-in-law and I visited Miranda Arts Project Space, a gallery/studio in Port Chester, NY to see the current installation, Interplay. It’s a collaborative work by artists Beth Dary and Sarah Lutz. The installation maps out the sea levels of Port Chester waterways—past, present, and future—using sculpture, painting, drawing, and collage. I loved it. The overall concept and look, and the close-in details.
I found this video while hunting down credits for today’s colored smoke post. It’s by photographer/director team Jeremy Floto and Cassandra Warner, who are principals in the New York City studio floto+warner. Their photos have appeared in House & Garden, W Magazine, and Wallpaper, and their clients include Volkswagen and Prada. I’m not sure what the story is behind this video, but it’s a beautiful piece, set to the song “Holocene” by Bon Iver. Just watch, it’s mesmerizing.
Pinterest is full of these very cool images of colored smoke in the landscape. I’ve pulled together a sampling by a few different photographers. Later today, I plan to post a beautiful video I hope you’ll watch.

With the elections tomorrow, and so much of the talk centering around the rights of women, I thought I thought it would be nice to post a medley of portraits that showcase women’s strength, beauty, and femininity over the last century or so.
