100 images celebrating light, love and the beach.In 2003, after a decade of documenting the rise of west coast rap music in my native Los Angeles, I moved to Miami Beach and began making photographs of the beautiful people I met – models, surfers, celebrities, strangers and friends. When I wasn't doing client work, I roamed the beaches from the Sagamore Hotel to south of Fifth nearly every day, getting to know the beautiful people who made the beach their temple – and who graciously allowed me to make photographs with them. From thousands of frames made between 2003-2007, I’ve curated a selection of 100 of the most beautiful images for my genesis collection. All NFTs are unique 1/1.
28 Hats for Lamu
-
The photographs in this exhibition were made on the sub-equatorial island of Lamu in Kenya, in February 2020, by South-African photographer Kristin-Lee Moolman and French-British stylist Louise Ford, who spent much of her childhood between Zimbabwe and Kenya.
The portraits document the competitors in the 2020 version of the Shela Hat Contest, a biannual event in which Lamunians foster environmental empathy. Entrants create hats from material that would otherwise be thrown away, in a celebration of recycling and repurposing.
7 Atmospheres
-
Woody Gooch’s 7 Atmospheres transports viewers through a dreamscape of raging oceans, contemplative landscapes and cosmic theatre. Often featuring friends and locals engaged in a dance with Mother Earth, the collection of 100 works reads like a poetic journey across Morocco, Indonesia, Mexico, New Zealand, Japan, Australia and the United States. Coming from a deeply personal reverence for the beauty and diversity of the natural world, 7 Atmospheres is equal parts travel journal, daydream and meditation. This is Woody’s genesis NFT collection, co-curated by Barry Sutton for 96 Studio.
