John Wimberley Photography

John Wimberley's photographs are populated by an abundance of pictorial elements: clouds, rocks, ravens, stones, mists, trees, grains of sand, feet; and it's extraordinary how he repeatedly gets these elements to work in his photographs.

While I have worked in many different forms, my current medium is cut paper. Using a utility knife, I cut directly into the surface of paper, slowly drawing, delineating form by subtracting negative space. I draw from mental imagery, direct observation, and subconscious vagaries.

Sybarite

Torquil and Simon met whilst working at Future Systems and quickly realised that they had matching design dreams. Both believe design can and should fulfil the twin briefs of functionality and pleasure and that there should be no boundaries between art, sculpture and architecture. The word 'Sybarite' encapsulates their design - voluptuous, luxurious and pleasurable.

Sybarite is an architectural and design practice who aim to tease all of the human senses and to sculpt architecture into the living environment in which it exists, whilst retaining complete functionality.

Valentines Performing Pigs

Valentines Performing pigs is a unique, fast-paced act that consists of mini pigs doing tricks and incredible athletic feats on a very large stage. As music plays, the dazzling swiners dance, jump in the air, play catch with the audience, run up teeter totters, slam dunk basketballs, pop balloons, roll barrels and madly roar across the stage on scooters and skateboards!

Expedition Planet Earth

In June 2004 a team departed from Canada on what is undoubtedly the world?s most grueling race: To be the first to travel around the planet (land and ocean) entirely by human power. Three nations, Britain, the USA and Canada are attempting to be first in this quest.

The team is using zero-emissions travel to highlight issues with global warming and to inspire others to use non-motorized transportation.

Expedition Planet Earth - 42,000 kilometers by foot, oar, ski and bicycle - The first human powered circumnavigation of the earth.
