Rebeca Bashly’s Chronophobia
It has been a while since I tried to produce an SL machinima, but yesterday I felt in the mood and wanted to do a blogpost with a video. And what better topic than Rebeca Bashly’s art installation on Split Screen, ‘Chronophobia’. I always love Rebeca’s work and this piece is no exception, though it…
Cica Ghost’s Strawberry Land
The ever so lovely and talented Cica Ghost has yet opened her sim with a new installation: Strawberry Land. A world covered with, well, strawberries…and more! It is a fun place, happy and cheerful and in between the gigantic strawberries you will find some delightful sets/scenes with little figures – most of them struggling against…
Gates of Memories
Today I took the time for some exploring and ended up in a gorgeous, snowy, place called Gates of Memories. There is not much information to be found, or maybe it completely missed it!, other than the land description tells us: We don’t remember days, we remember moments
Failure to thrive – The Gray Child
This afternoon I have explored and enjoyed a new installation on LEA15 by Storm Septimus, called: ‘Failure to Thrive – The Gray Child‘. A wonderful, magical, place in a globe/sphere, filled with scenes and objects on water. Since it is built in a globe the artist strongly advises to use windlight ‘Places Las Legunas’ and…
And so, I was a real model for an hour…
One of the things I have had on my wishlist in Second Life, was to have my portrait made by Skip Staheli. I’ve admired his work for ages and always enjoy his photo’s on Flickr. Sure I can do my own pics, but I just wanted one of those beautiful portraits that Skip creates. Because…
Dreamers – by Cica Ghost
Cica Ghost must be one of Second Life’s most productive artists, or so it seems to me.This morning I visited her latest art installation ‘Dreamers’ and as with all the works of this talented artist, I was delighted! Dreamers is placed in a half globe, or canopied as it is called, and is a magical…
Ego – Being your own Muse
‘Ego – Being your own Muse‘ is a small exposition, in the CKB Art Gallery. It opened last Saturday and since I was unable to attend the opening, I went to visit it today. The exposition, as the name suggests, features works of various SL photographers with as main topic their own avatar. Each artist…
City Inside Out – by Haveit Neox
Opened on 26 march, but I got to explore it last night for the first time, is a marvelous art installation by Haveit Neox on LEA20, called: City Inside Out. It will be open till 30 June, so plenty of time to re-visit or go see it for the first time! Typical of Haveit’s work,…
Balloons- by Cica Ghost
The lovely and talented Cica Ghost is certainly one of SL’s most productive artists. In March she let us all enjoy her installation ‘Ruins’ about which I blogged here, and since a few days ago The Ruins made way for a brand new, wonderful and whimsical work ‘Balloons’. Characteristic use of Cica’s sunflowers and rusty…
Lobby Cam – Bryn Oh
Last night I visited Bryn Oh‘s sim Immersiva to explore her new work: Lobby Cam. An interactive ‘installation’ and as all her works it is very photogenic. You land in a museum-like hall/room where Bryn’s works are on the wall. You can pick up the free HUD, which you will need if you want to…
Sparkys
Sparkys is a wonderful, black and white/greyish, art installation on MetaLes by Romy Nayar, telling the story of a world without colour. Luckily a scientist found out how to produce colours, by collecting them from the ‘Sparkys’ ( a bee-like creature, living in a black forest) and so the residents of this world are busy…
Metamorphosis
If you love the work of M.C. Escher, than you will most certainly enjoy a visit to Metamorphosis, by Beq Janus! A sim filled with black and white buildings, lizzards and staircases – Escher in 3D, in which I spent some hours exploring and walking through the fascinating build. What can I say, other then:…
Ruins – by Cica Ghost
To my delight Cica Ghost has a new sim, which will officially open today at 12PM SLT, with yet another amazing installation: Ruins. From the description: ‘Only the blackbirds and wildflowers remain to inhabit the ruins of the once active city, its brick edifices having collapsed to reveal the deserted worlds within’ Ruins is, as…
Light thoughts
Although my own thoughts are not exactly ‘light’ at the moment, this post isn’t about my thoughts – light or not. After Owl gave me a landmark to LEA 15 – and urged me to go see the installation by Mario2 Hellstein called ‘Light Thoughts‘ I paid it a visit today. Light Toughts is, as…
Obsession Exposed, Gardens and Gallery
On the 1st of February I was invited to the opening of a new exhibition in ‘Obsession Exposed Gallery’ (Adult) where my friend Hugh has some of his wonderful pictures on display – in an exhibition featuring a lot of talented SL Photographers! The exhibition is certainly worth a visit and today I went back…
