Beauty over War

Clothes, no beauty and beauty, trash and no trash

The Cuban-born artist duo Guerro De La Paz have created a series of sculptural art works out of discarded, recycled clothing.  These figures are made from t-shirts, shoes, boots, socks and more, many of which have been dug out of secondhand stores in Little Haiti, Miami.  The message Guerro De La Paz conveys with their recycled clothing art is about the consume-and-discard nature of our mass-produced lifestyles.  Our habits of consumption put us so very far away from the creation of the items we use– and just as far away from the piles of trash they become.

Who are the beautiful people?

Beautiful people inspire us. 

IRead Faces, by Cristian Radu (in this photo Sabina Alexandra)

Given the following hypothesis: 

• One understand beauty so subjectively and so widely;
• Studies show that parents are less likely to be annoyed by the bad things that beautiful children do;
• It’s not what you look at, it’s what you see;
• Within contemporary art, the concept of beauty changed its definition and criteria. Not only symmetry, but also non-symmetry is beautiful. Not only the rule, but also the alternative is beautiful;

I came to the following conclusion:

Beautiful people don’t actually exist. We create them for ourselves. It means one can live all the time among inspiration.

The beauty that lives in creativity

I explained what creativity means to me in this post I wrote on Fashionurbia. As of beauty, perhaps I’ve already stated, I strongly believe it is a very subjective matter.

While surfing the web, I stumbled upon these samples of that kind of beauty that, in my opinion, lives in creativity:
