I no longer have the capacity for flight. I lost that luxury long ago. Now all I’ve left in me is fight.

Do you ever wonder how much you exist in other people’s lives? I’m always curious if people think of me when a certain song comes on, or when they pass through a certain town. I wonder how many stories I’ve been a part of that I may have forgotten. I wonder if I still I exist in the minds of people that I don’t speak to anymore. I wonder how many times a day I pass through someone’s head.

Alice Smeets: The Guetto Tarot

Welcome to the Ghetto Tarot, a project from award-winning documentary photographer Alice Smeets and a group of Haitian artists known as Atis Rezistans. The idea was to take the classic Rider-Waite tarot deck of 78 cards and create a photographic version of each card using settings and objects in the vibrant ghetto of Haiti.

As Smeets says, “The spirit of the Ghetto Tarot project is the inspiration to turn negative into positive while playing. The group of artists ‘Atiz Rezistans’ use trash to create art with their own visions that are a reflection of the beauty they see hidden within the waste. They are claiming the word ‘Ghetto,’ thus freeing themselves of its depreciating undertone and turning it into something beautiful.”

notes chris, “as a culture, surfing has always been rooted in the idea of going further and deeper and getting farther away.” adds surfer patrick millin, featured above, “it’s so rare in this day and age that you’re able to discover a new wave. these places are so unexplored.“  

that said, even with the insulation of a neoprene wetsuit, “if you get flushed with water when you fall down, it’s like you’re getting electrocuted,” he continues. “the water is so cold it feels like fire. It strips your air away.” 

“if you had to duck under consecutive waves you would get a crazy headache and it felt like my eye sockets were physically swelling to the point I thought they might swell my eyes shut.”

Hello?

Hello, is Jonathan there?

No, he died last May.

Thank you, Sir. Have a nice day.
