Imagination is powerful and unlimited which makes it absolutely captivating. When creativity is actualized into something tangable such as art, it is fascinating because it is boundless; art has many faces.  

The way in which ideas are translated with the snap of a shutter, the stroke of a brush, the chisel of stone or pen to paper is interesting when conceived in an avant garde fashion or with a twist of familiarity.

Eric Rosner is an example of said un-conventionalism yet a great talent who is able to translate familiar things, from everyday life, into something visually bewitching.

Rosner is a native New Yorker with over 20 years of experience focused on illustration. He accredits his work to his “expansive imagination” and passion for New York and its culture.

Using ink markers and digital enhancements, Rosner is able to convey images of yesteryear and haunting historical images of architecture. He is an international artist with an immense understanding of the soul that exists at the very depths of New York.

The young developing mind of an adolescent is sometimes vexing with ignorance and the unexplored. Furthermore, youth is not only the concrete semblance of a young-being but, for some, an unattainable period of years lost never to be found again.

American photographer Sally Mann is somehow able to bridge the gap between youth and adulthood. Even if you’re unfamiliar with her work, it is likely you’ve seen it without any recollection.

Born in Lexington, Virginia, Mann has curated images that not only reflect the roots of the south but her earliest works are a reproduction of the very angst that can be youth; “At Twelve: Portraits of Young Women”, and  “Immediate Family” (which showcase her three children and husband) being the epitome of that very example. One of Mann’s most well-known photos, among the internet community, from the “Immediate Family” series is “Candy Cigarette”.

There is something undeniably beautiful about the young spirit and something to be highly coveted. Unfortunately, one does not appreciate the idea of being “forever young” until the salts of the hour glass have dwindled and a quarter-life crisis is upon them.

It is generally a faux-pas to speak of the pornographic evils associated with misguided youth but there is something interesting about chaos. “At Tweleve: Portraits of Young Women”, celebrate and shine light on that very chaos, illustrating what it means to be a young American girl on the verge of maturity.

I find chaos, maybe even from the sociological stand-point of disrupted ideas, generally fascinating. I mean, come on there is something quite terrifying and electric about a “child” smoking a cigarette or a girl posing with attitude.

To some the reality of youth is Botox. Youth is a face-lift. Youth is dangerous. Ultimately it is just a period of life and for a good reason. Youth is a nostalgic idea perpetuated through many things.

Turning back the hands of time come with consequences, more often than not, the result is obsession of what use to be.

After a brief stint working at a skate shop in So. Cal, Christion landed an internship with VERSUS. “I left Active Ride Shop to intern over there [VERSUS]. They had created a line called Us Versus Them. Now we have a ware house and show room. I do all the online shipping sales and hoping to move up in the company.”Versus will be attending this years Agenda in Huntington Beach.

Getting your foot in the door of an industry takes courage and Chris didn’t just limit himself to one field. When asked what he was passionate about the young hustler recalls high school. His first love had been baseball which he played all the way up until his Sophomore year. His fondness of the game had unfortunately concluded when he sustained an arm injury. “I couldn’t play anymore, it kind of ruined my grades and I slacked off. It really was what made me leave high school and I eventually got my diploma online.” It was during the uncertainty of his future  that Christion found clarity through music which led him to  DGTLX. “I just want to grow and get better at what I do, I really don’t know what I wanna be I’m still so young but I know it has to do with music or fashion. I would for sure like to be an entrepreneur in those industries.” Says Christion.

Currently he is working on numerous projects with Digital X WorldWide  including a collaboration with recording artist  Carter. The branding mecca of established and raw talent is additionally occupied with viral projects featuring  The Pricks, Big Sean , Yelawolf, Rock City and many more.
