Green Beings: 'My Precious' Garden of Eden | Kenneth Cobonpue @ Hive | Fall 2011 Design Books
/Dreaming of Eden
‘My Precious’ by Aorta | The Creatives AOC Private Studio
It’s not only female sensuality that is drowned but her ties to nature, the environment, dolphins (there are no dolphins, only water). Man rules all. The summation of the sensual encounter is death, but Sir will be haunted by Her. In the unconscious — where ‘she’ lives on … She haunts Sir, taunting his patriarchal, religious controls over her being and all the earth, its animals and earlier civilizations — when the problem is his own desires and need to master himself.
Sir appears to kill everything — all life, as evidenced in the last two images. Prior to that he shrouds her. Whew! What food for thought! Anne
The images were produced by Aorta, a cooperative trademark of photographers Marco Grizelj and Kristian Krän, represented by Bransch worldwide and LUNDLUND in Sweden.
That dream, that never came true,
that dream was angelic to get,
for him, who is banished from Eden,
is Eden an Eden yet. /G.Fröding

Curves Ahead | Kenneth Cobonpue & Hive Design Collective | ‘Perspectives’ at St Pauls by John Pawson Sensuality News Living
Kenneth Cobonpue is a member of the design collective Hive. Of course we love the landing page visual, one that totally speaks to Curves Ahead and Smart Sensuality values. In fact, we’ve just down in bliss and gone straight to design heaven in the Hive collection.
Kenneth Cobonpue’s designs remind us of another designer living in the Phillipines, young designer Vito Selma. His work is also deeply inspired by nature and female values. Read Dasha Zhukova | Crazy Horse Paris @Supperclub | Vito Selma AOC Style Shorts
