My favorite pickup from my recent NY trip has to be these Unis cargos. Available in 2 other colors, designer Eunice Lee really nailed it with these fatigues; color, fit and large side-pockets are the main criteria I look for in a pair of cargos.
“The amount of times I’ve actually heard a girl say “I WISH THEY MADE THIS FOR GIRLS” when looking at boys’ clothes goes beyond memory. From that quote, I’ve begun a little Photo Series project with some of the most gorgeous women in my life. Done right, the series should have that inexplicable umph most guys feel when waking up and seeing a girl in his t-shirt and boxers. Dressed in my clothes, they will, one by one be featured on the blog.”

“Jake Davis has revolutionized fashion films by shooting some of the world’s most stylish and beautiful people. “NY Made Us This Way” is an exhibition of his most unique Test Shots filmed in the city’s iconic streets and landmarks with subjects ranging from artists to icons.” If you’re in the big city anytime from sept 7th to oct 20th, head over to Nepenthes to check out the body of work.
My buddy Paul sent me these stills from his exhibit in Gastown at the Catalog Gallery.I Wish I coulda made it out there to see the space myself. I asked him two questions about his show: What nuance this show brings from his previous exhibit (Photographs Inspired by the Rap Music that once Inspired me)? – And the reason he decided to put in a painting.
If you are in YVR, make sure you write it in your schedule, it ends on sept 4th.
I wanted this show to look like a tumblr or a mood board style blog. So there isn’t really a theme, it’s images I shot that are either black and white or are earth tones. There are few winks to the photos inspired by the rap music that once inspired me project on the wall. Most of the original pictures from that project cycled around on those type of websites so it’s kind of a no brainer to tie it back in I think.
I made a sculpture and some letterpress stuff as well that didn’t make it into the show. The space was too small and it didn’t fit with the overall theme. Why did I paint? I guess I’m exercising my license to ill. The painting is my first and it won’t be my last. I did it with Dan Buller from HVW8. It’s a collaborative painting project. It’s new for me and it’s fun. We painted a 1992 16V Gti. The car has an amazing front end. One of my favorite designs from the late 80′s and early 90′s. It’s also a pretty rare car to find intact as it was very popular back then; most of the ones in Quebec were stolen.
With the release of the fourth issue of Inventory Magazine just around the corner, here are some outtakes from the shoot I did at the DLXE/BEDWIN offices. Hue and Jey were some of the nicest people I met on my trip. Big thanks to the Inventory crew for making it happen.
Did you pre-order your issue yet??
