On Trend: 35 Arrays of Arrows and Targets

I’ve been collecting images of arrows and targets for a while; I think I began to notice the trend in the fall. I thought it was a natural outgrowth of the trend of using feathers in decor, but I actually think it is part of The Hunger Games hoopla. In any case, I did a a piece on the arrow trend for The Inside Source earlier this year, and profiled blogger Amanda Hanley, in the Boston Globe Magazine. Put off by the high prices of vintage arrows, Hanley makes and sells arrows through her webshop Quivver. I, along with everyone else, saw The Hunger Games over the weekend, and as such felt inspired to post the roundup. UPDATE: I can’t believe I forgot about my own display of targets… They’re by Tracy Melton, and they’re hanging in our house on the Cape. It’s the first photo on the 23 Wall Installations post.

ARTmonday: Ye Rin Mok

Although I’ve yet to blog about all the pieces in my personal collection or the ones I covet, you may have noticed I have a thing for slightly edgy, somewhat fashion-y  female photographs, many of them showing just the bottom portion of the figures, often in hipster neighborhoods, glam rooms, or verging-on-seedy spaces. Los Angeles photographer  Ye Rin Mok‘s images fall into this category. Not surprising, since she shot a campaign for legwear company Hansel from Basel. The photographer has also done work for Dwell and Nylon, plus plenty of ‘zines.
