POW! WOW! KOREA! 2017.

POW! WOW! traveled to Seoul, Korea during the last eight days of September 2017 with artists Yoon Hyup, Xeva, Tristan Eaton, Persue, Sixcoin, Sheryo, Royyal Dog, Laurence Vallieres, Jay Flow, Jasper Wong, Grafflex, Cryptik and Andrew Hem to engage the streets and public spaces with art and to help cities become dynamic, culturally-driven spaces.

POW! WOW! founder Jasper Wong says, “”POW! WOW! has three main missions. One, it is to bring people together through creative pursuits. Two, to educate the youth and public about art and music through workshops, programming, and schools. Three, to beautify communities with art and color. We started in our own hometowns and we have made an effort to expand globally. We are hoping to [have fulfilled] these missions in Korea and build bridges through creative acts.”

Shark Shepherds Benjamin Von Wong

Surreal Portraits with Sharks are 100% Real

Upon first glance, photographer Benjamin Von Wong‘s latest work looks like a Photoshop composite that shows a model swimming with sharks below the sea. But what you see is the real deal: Von Wong did actually tie down a model underwater with sharks swimming around, all for a series of surreal (but very real) portraits.

Check out a video of how the a behind-the-scenes look at how the shoot was done:
