INVICTUS
20 Aug
“Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.”
-William Ernest Henley

BUSTART AND ZAIRA
8 Aug
I saw these while walking through Amsterdam, and there was just something about these works that caught my eye. So of course I snapped these shots, and looked up the artists when I got home. Bustart and Zaira are Swiss street artists who create thought-provoking works (their best works are not even pictured here). From looking at their websites they often work together, but their individual work seems to be very different. Their works touch on many issues, some of which are more obvious than others. Some of the works that interested me most, touch on the hyper-consumerism of Western culture. I wish that I could have seen all of their awesome work in person. Check out much more of their art at their respective websites by clicking their names: Bustart and Zaira
