Yayoi Kusama: Earth is a Polka Dot
Ren Hang's photography is a refreshing take on nudity, nature, and censorship.
As stated in Dazed last year, Hang insists his work is not political even though it is notably despised by the Chinese government.
“This really is just a bunch of limbs in front of a camera. There’s no statement to be made. No fight to be had against the institutions that govern him. Here, in Hang’s world, nudity and nature go hand-in-hand and that’s all there is to it.”

'World of Tomorrow' is a fantastic commentary on past, present, and future consciousness
Stumble upon this 16-minute Oscar-nominated short film by Don Hertzfeld entitled World of Tomorrow, which is now streaming on Netflix, and you won't be sorry you did. It's an enchanting sci-fi horror-meets-bedtime story, in fully animated stick-figure glory. A theme that continues to ring in the ears, long after the movie ends:
“We don’t ever fully appreciate the present until it becomes our past”
