Yes, Photography!

We all love to take pictures, either to showcase our skills in different postures or to show we are beautiful / photogenic. I'd say, pictures are memoirs of our life, recounts of our life's journey. Memoirs aren't just written scripts but can be in vocals and static images.

Let's say you're going through your stashed up belongings and then you come across this album you've had for a long while, going through it would bring back memories and laughter to you; even though some pictures were taken when time and conditions were rough for you buh seening it after a long while wouldd make you smile. For sometime, I would be focusing on Photography.

Photography is an art; the Photographer is an artist.
Photography as defined online is the process or art of producing  images of objects on sensitize surfaces by the chemical action of light or of other forms of radiant energy, as x-rays, gamma rays, cosmic rays. So, is Photography art, i'd say yes; it refers to an imprecise category of photographs, created in accordance with the creative vision of the cameraman. The basic idea behind the genre, is that instead of merely capturing a realistic rendition of the subject, the photographer is aiming to produce a more personal - typically more evocative or atmospheric - impression.

Nissi Ogulu: The Norrd Phenomenon for Exhibition

Who wouldn't be all smiles to come from a family of creative geniuses as that of the Ogulus. With a veteran broadcaster and award winning music critic as her grandfather; to an A-list artiste in the Nigerian music industry, Burna Boy as an older brother; to having a Big sister who bagged a First class degree from the Durham University Business School, mid year of 2014; to a 20 year Old Nissi Ogulu, a second year Mechanical Engineering Student at the University of Warwick, UK.

Confirming her creativity genes, Nissi is not only a wild soul of deep creative thoughts, but also an Afro Jazz singer with an admirable mastery of different musical instruments.

Nissi Ogulu, will be exhibiting her art works from January 3 to January 9, at Terra Kulture Tiamiyu Savage from 10am till 6pm daily.  Grand Opening 3rd-4th of January 2015.

The works displayed are that of an artist who one would consider, an old soul. Be it a painting of a "Massai Warrior from East Africa" or an abstract piece, which serves as a reflection of the current times among other thought evoking art works, one thing is certain. Norrd has the look of art, which can be termed contemporary, but yet nostalgic in the same space.
Admission; Open To All.

See you there..

Tie It to Trend It! so digital

Oh my God! You won't believe this. I thought I knew most things about fashion but I was wrong. Fashion keeps taking up new turns and everyday brings out, yet another trend to try out.

So, my guys in the house, i'm sure, very sure and certain (enough tautology), that you would fancy this tie. Tell me if you prefer this to the feather tie in my July's post on Men's Wear.

Merry Christmas

Wishing you a merry Christmas and a Happy New year. It's time to show some love. It's time to be merry. It's time to leave every sad memories and be at peace. It's time to be joyful.
