Jonathan Cherry – Blue Watch

July 30th, 2009

Photographer Jonathan Cherry has recently published a wonderful book of work titled ‘Blue Watch’ following the Falmouth Fire Fighters over a period of seven months. It gives an intimate and personal insight into life behind the heroic glamour.

Jonathan is gifted in picking out the subtle details which turn mundane scenes into something moving and insightful, capturing the essence of the moment.

It features an introduction by Wired UK writer Russell Davies, and a short story by Costa writer-in-residence Davey Spens.

Blue Watch is available to purchase at: www.amazon.co.uk and www.k-of-e.com/shop

Stephen Wiltshire

July 26th, 2009


Stephen Wiltshire is an incredible artist, he is probably best know in the UK for drawing the Houses of Parliament perfectly from memory after only seeing them at a glance.

“As a child, he was mute and did not relate to other human beings. Aged three, he was diagnosed as autistic. He had no language and lived entirely in his own world.”

Stephens amazing gift shows just how little we understand the human brain, and just how much we still misunderstand autism.

I just came across this site dedicated to Otl Aichers legendary 1972 Munich Olympic branding.

It covers a huge selection of his work – everything from the iconic posters right down to the medals, mascot, tickets, timetables – even matchboxes.
