The Egg Painter / Titus-Armand Napirlica

The Egg Painter from Titus-Armand on Vimeo.

The Easter tradition of dying eggs is practiced by people all over the world, but in Ciocanesti, a small village in Romania’s northern region of Bukovina, this tradition has evolved into an art form. Exquisitely hand painted with intricate traditional designs, each of these eggs takes hours to create and is among the things the people here are most proud of. This docu-short offers a glimpse into the art and craft of egg painting.

Feel the sea monster. Be the sea monster. Actually the octopus is a very intelligent creature, and can do cool things like open twist-top bottles to get food out. Oh and three fifths of their neurons (the electrical pulses that make brains work) are in their arms. Be the sea monster — via Black Milk Clothing
