“DOING COMMON THINGS IN AN UNCOMMON WAY” CONTEST WINNER WVEN VILLEGAS

Congratulations to Wven Villegas for winning our “Doing Common Things In An Uncommon Way” October Contest!



Who are you and what do you do? Hi I’m Wven and I am a creative. For the past 15 years I have lived & loved in New York. All the while documenting my life’s little adventures through my writing and photography and combining it all in a book. The last 2 years I have been on a sabbatical traveling around shooting as much as I can. And focusing my concentration on the various projects that surround my book. Outside of the book I am preparing for my very first show. I am having the time of my life right now doing exactly what I love. I feel positive and excited to share this with the world.

Information on the artist:

Liu Bolin’s The Invisible Man continues his exploration of Chinese national identity and the relationship between human beings and the environment. The large-scale photos on display will span his recent work and include his famed self-camouflage series Hiding in the City as well as Hiding in Italy. In one set of ten photographs, the artist pays tribute to the history of China and specifically Beijing. Liu Bolin chose the highly iconic site of the “Nine Dragon Wall” in Beihai Park to celebrate the grandeur of Chinese culture and history. The motif of the five-clawed dragon, symbol of Imperial power, chasing the enflamed pearl is prominent in Chinese classical tradition. The ceramic wall is also a magnificent illustration of Chinese artistic craftsmanship.
