The "City Lights" Series

Eddie Tan presents his new series of photo manipulative artworks on picboutique.com
The hundreds of photos layering on top of each other, generate a new but though familiar vision of metropolitan cities that seem to be vibrating through the night. A drunken vision or just a sea of lights...

"Leigh Viner" New Artist at Pic Boutique

We are so happy to have Leigh Viner from Denver, Colorado, U.S.A as a new artist within our collection. We have come across her inspirational blog http://jkldesign.blogspot.com/ and her successful Etsy shop based in the U.S., where she already sells her multiple art-prints successfully; and we were "wowed" by the style with which she elegantly performs her arts.

Leigh is one of the most humble and positive artists we know, and her pieces reflect this.
She applies her creative skills on Illustrations, Photography and Make-Up; just the right mix to create Art we can absolutely identify ourselves with.

The following works are exclusively available at Pic Boutique. Collect your own Leigh Viner artwork and visit Pic Boutique!

During his studies in industrial design at the Polytechnic of Milan, in 2005 he won the “AD Young

Designers Awards” and soon started cooperating with Cibic&Partners. The year after he partecipated

in some workshops at Fabrica (Benetton research and development communication centre).

Fascinated by conceptual art and excited for change, he moved to the Netherlands

to attend a master at the Design Academy Eindhoven. After a period spent at Antonio Iraci &Partners

involved designing shops and house's interiors, he worked at Cibicworkshop design research center

in Vicenza.

Here he worked for design companies and institutions such as Foscarini, Artemide, Serralunga,

Antonangeli, Leucos, La Rinascente, PaolaC., Emu, La Triennale di Milano, Kunsthaus Graz, Gran

Teatro La Fenice, Mondo S.p.a., VeronaFiere, Cazzaro, The city of Cartagena (Colombia), Quarella,

Environmental furniture.

In 2010 he took part in the collective "Recession design" at the Milan Design Week and was invited to

take part at the project "AAA Cercasi Nuovo Artigiano" which ended with a touring exhibition. He is

now working as consultant for companies, developing projects in exhibition and product design. He

recently established SirAlbert&Mr.Simon studio with Simone Polga.

He believes in the truth of objects and in the value of experiencing things. Objects come to life as time

go by, and the minute we become attached to them we can’t do anymore without them. The

unconscious connection between emotion and familiarity gives rise to his interpretation of design.

Simone Polga for Pic*Boutique

Gentili Art-Lovers, siamo contenti di presentarVi un nuovo artista nel nostro pool di fotografi "Simone Polga".

Simone Polga nasce a Thiene (Vicenza) nell’aprile 1976. In seguito al diploma e master in design presso la Scuola Italiana Design, inizia a lavorare come product designer per aziende nell’ambito del mobile. Nel 2004 fonda, assieme ad altri 3 soci, JoeVelluto, studio di design multidisciplinare, con il quale svolge lavori di ricerca, industrial design e comunicazione per aziende quali Bosa Ceramiche, Diadora, Coin, Coop, Coro, Euro3Plast, F.lli Guzzini, Gas Jeans, Gruppo S. Pellegrino, Killer Loop, Mandarina Duck, Meritalia, Pandora Design, Pitti Immagine, Polimoda Firenze, Richard Ginori, Rollerblade, Sisley, Sonus Faber.
Nel 2005 presenta il libro “Salefino: nuovi sapori dal design italiano”, edito da Abitare Segesta. Nel 2006 lancia con Cristina Morozzi il progetto di comunicazione “Nazionale Italiana Design” che si concretizza con la nascita del brand “CoinCasaDesing”, di cui progetta l’immagine. Nel 2008 il progetto “Saver” prodotto da Coro viene segnalato dall’ADI Design Index. Lasciato lo studio JoeVelluto, da Marzo 2008 è consulente per differenti aziende, sviluppando in particolar modo progetti di retail design, che lo portano a lavorare in tutta Europa.

“Faccio tanti lavori diversi, faccio fotografie, disegnini, architetture enormi, scrivo. Altrimenti sono sicuro che la mia anima si annoierebbe”. Cito con ammirazione le parole di Ettore Sottsass, e in qualche modo posso riconoscere una verità che ci “accomuna”: costante ricerca nello scoprire altri monti, discipline, anime. Nasco come designer industriale, incuriosito e appassionato dall’architettura, dalla musica, dalla fotografia. Leggo con i miei occhi il mondo e cerco di fermare con le immagini quegli istanti che rendono la vita unica.
