MAOTW.

Yes, I know it's more than overdue, but finally here comes "My Artist Of The Week“ again. This time it's a photographer named Phil Borges.




“For over twenty five years Phil Borges has lived with and documented indigenous and tribal cultures around the world. Through his work, he strives to create a heightened understanding of the issues faced by people in the developing world.
Through his exhibits and award-winning books, Phil attempts to create a relationship between the audience and his photographic subjects.
“I want the viewer to see these people as individuals, to know their names and a bit of their history, not just to view them as an anonymous part of some remote ethnic or tribal group.“ “

Briefly: If you like photography you will love this. It's truly amazing work in all respects and if I were you I'd go and have a look or two. Especially if you are into photography and this kind of art, this is a must. Many thanks.

There's Really No Excuse...

...and even if there would be - I don't have one really. I am probably just the laziest blogger of all times and a complete disgrace to my species... Okay, I could say that I have been extremely busy working, which is true - but then again: I figure other bloggers do have jobs too and if they wouldn't still manage to write their blogs - as I seem uncapable of doing - the whole blogging star would just die I guess... So that can't be an excuse and since this is the only thing that I could have come up with, I guess I don't have one and all that remains is the sad realisation that I am just incredibly lazy when it comes to consistent blogging....Buuut I am sorry and I vow to be better in the future. Actually - even I don't believe that...
