Design Free Thursday | Identity Crisis.
29th March
In his latest series I Am Winnie the Pooh, French photographer Benjamin Béchet kidnaps a handful of superheroes and children’s icons from their fairytale settings and strips them of their supernatural powers by showing them in real life situations. Apart from being quite clever and amusing, there is a certain darkness and melancholy in these images.

Consider this post a small yellowtrace tribute to the upcoming “Sausage Fest” in Sydney this weekend, also known as Mardi Gras…
