The Iconic Tweets of Kanye West Kanye’s tweets were a whole universe on their own. One moment he was dropping a line that felt like a philosophy class, the next he was firing off something so chaotic you had to reread it twice. But that’s what made them iconic. His feed mixed creativity, ego, honesty, and confusion in a way nobody else could pull off. Love him or not, those tweets changed how artists talk online. They showed what happens when someone refuses to edit themselves and just lets the world watch the thoughts as they arrive.

“La Resurrezione” is the moment the Vatican lets chaos speak in the open air, by Pericle Fazzini (1977). La Resurrezione is a monumental bronze and brass sculpture by Italian artist Pericle Fazzini that looms behind the stage in the Paul VI Audience Hall of the Vatican. Installed in 1977, it shows Christ rising from what is represented as a crater caused by a nuclear explosion in the Garden of Gethsemane.  The work measures roughly 20.1 meters wide, 7 meters tall, and 3 meters deep. Its chaotic mix of twisted roots, rock-like forms and molten textures evokes catastrophe and rebirth at once.  When unveiled by Pope Paul VI, the piece challenged traditional expectations of religious sculpture: instead of calm or idealized reverence, it offers a raw, modern interpretation of resurrection after destruction.  Because of its dramatic style and reference to nuclear devastation, the statue sparked strong reactions: for some it’s powerful and prophetic, for others unsettling or even disturbing.

Set design is one of the most powerful storytelling tools in performance, even though it often works quietly in the background. Each reveals how a stage can become more than a backdrop. It can guide emotion, shape narrative, and create a visual language that audiences absorb instantly. Great set design doesn’t just decorate a space. It builds atmosphere with intention. A single opening in a wall can suggest freedom or isolation. A towering projection can turn a character’s inner world into something physical. Color, light and composition work together to create scenes that feel almost suspended in time. That is the real beauty: the ability to construct worlds that communicate before any actor even speaks. When you study these sets closely, you start to understand how design becomes a form of storytelling in itself. It teaches you how space can carry meaning, how scale can shift perception, and how a thoughtfully crafted environment can elevate an entire production. It’s art, architecture and emotion merging into one living moment. What are your thoughts? 💭 *The purpose of this content is solely educational
Do You Look Like Your Dog? By Gerrard Gethings’ (@gezgethings) photographic universe. The British photographer has spent years capturing portraits that blur the line between person and pet, searching for those strange, delightful moments when a human’s eyes, hair, or attitude mirror that of a dog. The project, aptly titled Do You Look Like Your Dog?, began in London as a playful experiment and quickly evolved into a series of striking, often hilarious visual pairings. Gethings approaches his work like a street detective, scanning parks, buses, and neighborhoods with a curious eye, always hunting for that perfect echo between species. Sometimes he spots it in a stranger’s curls that match a poodle’s fluff; other times in the calm, watchful gaze of a terrier and its human twin.

In the early 1980s, Tinariwen emerged as the unmistakable voice of the Tuareg people of the Sahara. Formed in the desert borderlands of Algeria and Mali, the band’s roots lie in a generation which at the time was displaced by drought, colonial borders and armed conflict. Their leader, Ibrahim Ag Alhabib, witnessed his father’s execution as part of the Tuareg rebellion, taught himself guitar in exile and helped forge the group’s identity. Tinariwen more than adapting traditional Tuareg music, electrified it, mixing roaring guitars, acoustic riffs and desert rhythms. The result is what many call “desert blues”: a genre grounded in longing, displacement and resistance. Their songs address exile, land, identity and freedom, a narrative rarely heard in Western music so candidly. By the early 2000s, they broke into international consciousness with the release of The Radio Tisdas Sessions (2001) and global tours. A Grammy win followed. But Tinariwen never simply became a “world music” export. They remain deeply anchored in the struggle of the Tuareg: their homeland’s hopes and wounds echo in every chord. What are your thoughts? 💭
Oliver Wainwright’s (@ollywainwright) Surreal Glimpse into Pyongyang’s Dreamlike Interiors [2015] When British architect and critic Oliver Wainwright stepped into North Korea, he wasn’t expecting color. What he found, however, was a fever dream of pink marble lobbies, turquoise staircases, and mint-green corridors, a cinematic illusion wrapped in propaganda gloss. His series Inside North Korea captures a country staged to perfection, where every curtain fold and pastel wall seems choreographed for a tourist who may never come. Through his lens, Pyongyang’s architecture reads like retro utopia: Soviet bones dressed in 80s optimism, newly repainted to signal progress, all part of a grand performance meant to sell the illusion of modernity. Yet behind the cotton-candy palette, Wainwright’s photos expose a managed fantasy where spontaneity doesn’t exist, and beauty is state-engineered. What are your thoughts? 💭
The Night Surrealism Crashed High Society In December 1972, Marie-Hélène de Rothschild transformed her family’s Château de Ferrières into a surrealist ball, inviting Paris elite’s to dine among what at the time was set to be beloved as dream logic and disorientation. The invitation could only be read in a mirror; and guests arrived through candlelit fog wearing antlers, birdcages, and clocks as masks. The “Surrealist Ball” was the moment art infiltrated aristocracy. Influenced by Dalí and the lingering pulse of surrealism, Rothschild turned the iconic and yet to the day what feels like today as a disturbing dinner, into A full fledged performance.

The Tao Men of Lanyu and Their Ceremonial Helmets Off the coast of Taiwan lies Lanyu, or Orchid Island, home to the Tao people, also known as Yami. Settled around 800 years ago by migrants from the Philippines’ Batanes Islands, the Tao rely on fishing and boat-building, which form the backbone of their culture and spiritual practices. Traditional Tao clothing is simple and practical: men wear loincloths and vests, women cover their upper bodies with short vests and aprons. For ceremonies, vibrant blue-and-white vests are added, along with striking accessories,women wear octagonal wooden hats, men wear silver helmets. These silver helmets, made by melting Spanish silver coins that reached the island via trade routes through the Philippines, are not for protection. Instead, they signify wealth and hold spiritual significance, used to bless homes, fields, boats, and even to attract fish at the start of the fishing season. The helmets grow larger as wealth accumulates, embodying both status and tradition in Tao society. With modern emigration threatening the continuity of these practices, the silver helmets remain a powerful symbol of the Tao people’s connection to the sea, their heritage, and their enduring cultural identity.
