John Pugh's murals

3-D murals painted on the walls of buildings by artist (eye trick) John Pugh.

The main street of Los Gatos, California. Even the woman looking at the ruins is part of the mural.

Taylor Hall, California State University in Chico California. The Doric columns are paintings.

Honolulu, Hawaii. This mural took two months of studio work to plan and another six months to execute with the help of 11 artists. The painting shows Queen Liliuokalani, who was the last monarch of the Hawaiian Islands. It also shows Duke Kahanamoku, the father of surfing.

This mural in the Café Truque dos Olhos (it must belong to the artist) in San José (California) is entitled: Art imitating life. The customer doesn't leave the establishment when it closes. Hard to believe: she's part of the painting.

Twenty-nine Palms, California. The bull Valentine and a patient bird wait for the artist to wake up. They are all part of the painting.

Bahia in a bottle, Santa Cruz, California. The viewer is part of the mural.

It looks like a nice place to rest tired feet on the pavement in front of the health centre in the city of Sarasota, Florida.

Stopping to look in Winslow, Arizona. The painting includes the girl in the Ford pick-up looking at us. 

The wall of the Shopper's Corner Market in Santa Cruz, at the start of the 3D mural.

Hwangya aka Badland Hunters

 

Another post-apocalyptic movie, this time from South Korea...

The premise is almost the same as other movies from this category... Still, the storyline has some twists, making this one worth it.

The actors are great with top performances...

It's difficult not to relate to the supposed heroes against the bad guys...  It makes us wonder how mankind can go so far against the true values of humanity...

Make your own introspection...

Triangle of Sadness

Here we have a dystopian view of different classes in a story that brings out a need for introspection...

The director moves the characters into situations that create ambivalence, and comedy but mostly reveal themselves satirical.

It's a movie that makes us feel strange but can immerse ourselves in the characters, no matter their social background!

Go for it!
