La Familia, a photo series by Mexican artist Ciler:
“La Familia is a photo album from 1875 that the artist Carlos Aguirre gave me as a gift.
Nowadays in Mexico, there is a really big drug cartel called “La Familia” (The Family). This cartel controls everything around them using fear and violence, their cruel and ruthless ways have become one of the biggest problems of México in recent years.When i began to work on the intervention of the album, I imagined all those people in the pictures, I imagined that it was almost impossible for anyone to be alive, while imagine the similarities of all of those who died in hands on the “Familia” cartel.
La Familia” is part of the “Huele a Muerto” series that where exposed last November in Mexico City, Mexico.”
For his MuchLoved series, photographer Mark Nixon took portraits of cherished plush animals that have been so well-loved that they are now falling apart…

Benoît Dobbelaëre develops his own universe around his personage called Emâ with different medias like sculpture, drawings and videos. Emâ is a female and a male figure, he/she is made of flesh and prosthetics, a collection of weird objects with bursts of gold.
It’s a poetic reflexion about the beauty and the horror, the place of the artist in his own world and the personal mythology.
