Something is happening with contemporary art and its mix within the surreal world of anthropomorphism. Are we reverting our realities back to our childhood dreams?
I love it.... (!!)

New Miranda July Photography!



Miranda July begins her Vice photo spread with these fine words:

Dear Julie,
Do you ever feel like an extra in your own life? It seems like I'm forever stuck in the background, watching other people say and do all the things I feel inside. One day I'm gonna surprise everyone with my talents. They will be laughing and crying and texting me so often that I will be annoyed.
Until then,

Sandy
