to the artists, designers and craftspeople who think I call their work kitsch... this is NOT the case, it refers to my own work

intriguing shop windows

yesterday was the last day of :
VITRINE 2007 SURFACES Flanders Fashion Institute 
Belgian and international fashion designers, photographers, graphic designers, fashion students presented their work in shop windows all over the city of Antwerp. All participants were completely free to present their work as they saw fit.

 Ronald Stoops & Michael Dans
a photographer & a painter, came up with this stunning image. a photograph of a model who has been painted black so that only a skeleton-like figure is visible; probably referring to the fact that some fashion models literally starve themselves to death.
this photo was taken directly in front of the shop window but at the wrong time of the day, the sun hits the lower part of the window and that is why the top and bottom part of the picture look different. click on the link above to get a better view of their work.
