Ecopera: Are You Ready To Change Your Life?
It started as a stream.
A stream of images on Flickr featuring women who appeared to be tumbling in a mysterious, invisible fluid that seemed to want to remove their jeans and panties. I’d been admiring the illustrations of Fiodor Sumkin for months, and usually he provides detailed captions for his gorgeous and clever images. These were only tagged with “personal” and “ecopera.”
Next came the gorgeous type samples, identified as Paloma. Oh, the ligatures! Those numerals! I was falling in love with a font.
The images asked: “Are you ready to change your life?” Indeed, I felt ready to float down this strange and sexy path, changing my clothes and my life along the way. Yet I still didn’t know what it was asking of me…
Finally, Ecopera is revealed, and I’m even more excited. This participatory project on art and ecology addresses environmental issues through contemporary art.
Everyone can take part in the project. You may not be an artist, agraphic designer, a photographer or an illustrator. But you should beconcerned about the future of our planet. Simply register an account on EcoPera.net and post your works on the subject of ecology. The only mandatory requirement is to have some text on the subject of ecology in the artwork. You can either think it up yourself or use someone else’s words.
Looking forward to seeing what blossoms here!
