The conflict
You want the help but you don’t want the commitment. you want to be given what you want but you want it for free. You want the pain to go away but you don’t want to change. You want to feel free of everything that hurt you but you rely on the experiences for your identity. You want love but you are never satisfied.
This is the conflict that life has risen and it’s ok to be this way, we are all conflict with our thoughts and emotions and ego. It’s ok to want to die.
Rose House by Sergey Makhno Studio
Rose is a guesthouse made of concrete, weathering steel, glass and water. The steel exterior seems private and fully immersed in the wild nature, whilst the inner part of the building is opposite – open and fragile due to the floor-to-ceiling windows. The layout is designed as a freely flowing space with transforming functional zones. An owner can move the walls and convert the space into one social ground floor for parties
The name Rose came from blooming red walls. In order to water a concrete flower the architect created an artificial pool bordering with a terrace from the one side. In the mountain house water becаme a material of the same importance as concrete, glass and steel. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide the interaction of nature and the interior. Seasons change is considered as a part of Rose. Resembling the life cycles of a flower – the nature blooms and withers away in the house.
I miss you but I’m never gonna tell you
Loop #58 is actually an old video I shot of actor Rhashan Stone 3 years ago as a digital billboard for the promotion of a tv show. I wasnt into cinemagraphs at the time and the shot ended up not getting used. It was too good not to share so I decided to make new stuff out of the old.
