In the eye of the storm..

I went thru my Feeds and one of my favorite blog's mentioned "StormEye". So I had to check out :) I think, I'll never understand how people can create such wonderful and amazing places. And I'm really thankful that they share them with us "normal Sl residents". At "The Aho Museum" on the NMC Campus, includes a bright range of art, presents an encyclopedic showcase of virtual art forms and includes sculptures of all kinds and so on :) Well, I only visited the "StormEye", which looks like a pipe or a tube. At the entry you recieve a notecard with all the necessary instructions, so that you can fully enjoy your visit. Go thru the portal, grap a umbrella and climb up the stairs :) you will be fascinated, like me.
It begins like a walk at a sunny afternoon, but then (for this you got the umbrella :)) a storm is coming in. The clouds get more and darker :( Thru the sound effects you really feel like you would standing in the middle of the center of this storm. Rain starts and finally you are happy you got the umbrella :) "StormEye" is a new installation by Douglas Story and Desdemona Enfeld. And definitly a must be! Go there and enjoy the sounds and the effects of "StormEye".

Anno 1900, France,...


the time of the Moulin Rouge,..but, no, we don't go to the SL Moulin Rouge :) No, we are visiting a new exhibition at the Paris 1900 Sim. Zephyru Zapedzki and Life Charron decided to share with us their adorable art at "The Museum of Paris". You can see his work, RL oils on canvas, on the first level. On the 2nd and 3rd floor you can see SL and RL black and white photography of Life Charron.

Zephyru is a RL painter and musican from Lisboa, Portugal. Oils on canvas and also in pencil, acrylic and photography are brighten our horizon. Life Charron is a SL and RL photographer, which caughts the moments. If you want to read or see more of her visit her blog. The museum is left handed, when you leave the metro, and on 3 levels you can't get enough of their works. Realism, surrealism, nudes, landscape, abstract, from all a little bit and and the result you can see at this vernissage in SL. I only can say, what a wonderful, so deep touching work. Seldom I'm so excited.
One of his work made me thinking and I have to share this wonderful paint with you.

Black Arum by Zephyru Zapedzki (oil on canvas)
