Tree Hugger

I just got back from Vancouver and not a hippie in sight. I was however inspired by the trees. Oh those beautiful green trees... I still maintain that Montreal is more "World Beat" than Vancouver. Exhibit A: The Tam-Tams, but I digress. While hiding from the rain – make that November rain – I ducked into local book store to recharge my design batteries. I must have read a zillion magazines and if memory serves me right, I came across the Korean artist Myoung Ho Lee while flipping through Corduroy magazine. At least I think it was Corduroy (it's a sweet magazine if you don't already know about it).

Got to say, Myoung is one talented photographer. He creates these complex set-ups by suspending a giant backdrop against a single tree. It's hard to tell if it's a painting or a photo. All I know is it's beautiful. Peace bro.
