I randomly saw (stalked) him at Bondi Beach on the tail end of Summer. I couldn't get over his tattooed face, not something that is common in Sydney (unless you are part of some gang). People's first impression of him is that he is a bikey or someone who'd stab you for your money. In actual fact, he was the opposite- calm, curious and an all round cool cat. He is a tattoo artist in his native country, Germany. He definitely needs to move to LA or London to model because I feel he has a certain look that will appeal to that region. Anyway, here are a couple of shots I took of him.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Photography/Motion and ballet- when they collide magic happens. I watched a collaboration between photographer Rankin and ballet dancer Sergei Polunin (who i love) on YouTube. I love the aesthetic and style in they way it is filmed. One of my goals is to have a portrait session with Sergei, one day it will happen.</div>

Wow, has it really been that long since I've posted?? Jeeeez Louise! I thought about writing an essay of what has happened in the last year, but a photo diary will suffice. To give you context.. I've been shooting <a href="https://www.facebook.com/atticsydney/" target="_blank">Attic Sydney</a> parties for my pals Andrew and Brendan who run the brand. South America; I visited Cuba, Chile, Peru and Argentina (woohoo!). I also knocked a couple of portraits out too.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Off tangent, I've updated my side panel with a<span style="color: #990000;"> <a href="https://raverria.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">SHOP RAVER RIA</a> </span>button. You can purchase my Cuba and South America travel photo book I published. Click on the button to take a peek ;) I will be adding photography prints to the shop soon. Watch this space for announcements!</div>

It's his beautifully crafted portraits and the way he manipulates and uses light to evoke emotion, as well as planting curiosity in the viewer is the reason his art arrests me. I've always been inspired by 17th Century Dutch painters, particularly ones that paint floral arrangements. <br />
<br />
This photograph I shot over the weekend is an ode to Rembrandt, his counterparts and the era of the Dutch Golden Age.

<br />
To say that I was shocked was an understatement. Throughout the night I kept dropping the F-bomb (what's new?!) from sheer surprise/amazement/joy. The yelling and cheering from my work colleagues, who are a part of the Sydney photographic community, caught myself and patrons off guard. Thank you for your squeals and cheering! To my family and friends who turned up, thank you! To judge Ingvar Kenne, thank you for your kind words and thank you for voting for my photographs. To SunStudios thank you for holding such an esteemed event for up and coming photographers and assistants in the industry, as well as encouraging, promoting, nurturing talent. Congratulations to Peter Sharp for First Place and Felipe Neeves for receiving Highly Commended, both your images are wonderful and I am happy to be placed amongst such fine photographers.<br />
<br />
There are moments as a creative that you look at your work and doubt what you're producing. But it's milestones like this where you are reminded that you are on the right path. In saying that, I hope to create more photographs that tell stories that people can emotionally gravitate to.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the reasons why I enjoy photographing flowers is for their beauty, as well as their darkness. I always say that I prefer dead ones, there is more character in them. Wilted, brown with flickers of colour from when they were alive. Flowers are given in time of celebration as well as in death. The later is what I'm drawn to most. All beautiful things age, it's the transient nature of youth and beauty. Which, I believe, is something that we shouldn't hold onto. In this fleeting moment, I capture these flowers in their prime and glory. But I also look forward to when they age because there is also beauty in their death. </div>

I was fortunate enough to attend his artist talk which was a part of Vivid's program. I respect him even more as an artist and person. He is humble and an inspiration, particularly to young up and coming producers. I respect how real, raw and unapologetic he is about his emotions and sensitivities - which resonates in his music. TA-KU has no musical background, but it's a testament that passion, practice, faith and work ethic will get you through.

During the ANZAC day long weekend AF and I flew down to Melbourne for all things food, art and music. Melbourne knows how to do things right- coffee and fashion for example. It is my home away from home, the cooler and hip cousin of Sydney. AND people are ridiculously nice! It actually made me feel a bit weird, Sydney-siders are notoriously cold and snobbish in a way. So walking into stores or eating at restaurants human interaction with staff was a novel experience, Melbournians are pleasant and up for a chat.

art with Made by MaraA few weeks back my sister and I collaborated to create marble like abstract art. If you've been following my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/raver_ria/" target="_blank">instagram page</a> you would have seen inspiration posts like these. It is art I've been meaning to create for a while and I am glad I finally had a chance to get around to it. Watch this space as you'll be seeing more of these bad boys.<br />

Hi Pals,<br />
<br />
I'm happy to announce that I will be a part of a group exhibition, Frame 17A, at the Australian Centre for Photography. Come along if you are in Sydney for this evening's opening night.
<br />
<br />
Exhibition launch:<br />
Friday 15 April 6 - 8pm<br />
Exhibition open 11am - 3pm, 16 April - 15 May 2016.<br />
Presented in ACP's Social Gallery
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ_4EwXQhJBDZMvdIeNarc6vz5NMj8vQjZNo3oa4e7DhEQtvUk7AhRWKARghZGv6tMyP_VJXkmk6VDIygCLFUQcT4kYyli3aVW6-7qxOEBRg3NCFFBUKnWZVq-yA3wit5LKdst/s1600/MariaCruz_RaverRia.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="633" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ_4EwXQhJBDZMvdIeNarc6vz5NMj8vQjZNo3oa4e7DhEQtvUk7AhRWKARghZGv6tMyP_VJXkmk6VDIygCLFUQcT4kYyli3aVW6-7qxOEBRg3NCFFBUKnWZVq-yA3wit5LKdst/s640/MariaCruz_RaverRia.jpeg" width="640" /></a>A bit about the exhibition:
<br />
<i>Writing in the 1980 book Contact Theory, Martine Franck described her process of reviewing several similar frames on a contact sheet to select the best one for printing,
“Frame 18a was discarded because of the towel on the left, the figures in the background were confused and I had framed too close to the shadow of the hammock. Frame 16a was a possibility but I would have had to crop the bathing suit on the right which I preferred not to do and the man doing push ups in the background was in a less interesting position. The image that had the greatest intensity and concision was to my mind frame 17a.”
<br />
<br />
In this quote “frame 17a” represents what most photographers are hoping for – that moment when everything comes together to produce an image that stands out as being better than the others. Generally the other frames are then neglected, perhaps just being seen as steps on the way to the good image. The idea of this exhibition is to look at all of the frames from a roll of film without prioritising any particular one as being the best. By doing this we get to see the working process of a photographer – where they start, what options they explore, how one decision leads to another.
<br />
<br />
A roll of film is a bit like a short story – there is a beginning and an end but only a limited amount of material in between with which to work. Depending on the film format the number of frames might be 10, 12 or 36. Within these boundaries each photographer makes their decisions. Some devote the entire roll to exploring variations on one idea, while others cover a range of locations and subjects. Some are trying for a great image, while others are 'practising their scales' - doing it for the pleasure of photographing or exploring a technical aspect.
<br />
<br />
Many film photographers don't like to show their proof sheets, so I appreciate the generosity of the participants in this exhibition. Some are established professional or fine art photographers while others might be described as beginners. Despite their relative experience, each of these proof sheets has something to tell us about the photographic process, via all the frames that aren't 17a". </i>

Hey Pals,<br />
<br />
Happy Sunday!<br />
<br />
Sunday means Columbia Road Flower Market in East London. As I no longer live in the UK, I thought I'd share a tribute post to the famed market. These photographs are long overdue, it was a flower light test shoot I did at <a href="http://www.studiomondo.com.au/" target="_blank">Studio Mondo</a> last year.<br />
<br />
What is your favourite flower market?<br />

<br />
I've been in somewhat of a creative rut which I am slowly clawing my way out of. People believe that there are no coincidences in life, but I believe that the things we think about we attract. Lately I've been contemplating on my lack of inspiration/ art and while I was trawling through websites of things that make my heart happy, I found this gem from <a href="http://www.peterlindbergh.com/essay/">Peter Lindbergh's website </a> - an essay on creativity. 100% what I needed to read right now.<br />
<br />
CREATIVITY
<br />
<i>"Creativity is the basis of self-expression. Why are some people supposedly more creative than others, and why can’t others open themselves up enough to be able to express who they are?
</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Creation is the birth of something, and something cannot come from nothing. When someone creates something: a painting, a poem, a photograph, the creativity comes from an idea, from a feeling, from emotion, or from a combination of ideas, feelings and emotions that are somehow ‘reborn’ from all our experiences and perspectives.
</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Creativity is the desire to express ourselves. To formulate these expressions, we have to draw from our reservoir of experience, dreams, desires and experimentation and mix together what was, what is, and what could be… I don’t think you can learn it, it is rather something that evolves. Your perception of everything in your life fills up this reservoir.
</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Some people are drawn to create and express themselves, others are drawn to reflect, to analyze. But in the end, they all could be creative if they had the desire to explore the way in which they are integrated in the world of their experiences. Because creativity is really a rebirth, a true tone we feel for ourselves and for our world. Then our work becomes a real part of who we are. Maybe all this is a question of how deep we are willing to go…"</i><br />

<br />
This quaint cafe is located on a windy country road, if you speed past you'd think it's another local take away food store. It's a blink and you'll miss moment when you are trying to locate the shop front. AF and I were driving slower than usual to make sure we were at the right location- our memory of google street view had us covered.<br />
<br />
We were the first patrons on a Sunday morning (they open from 8am if your wondering), we were met with homely hospitality. Wolfe and Co has all the stylish interior and exterior markings of a hipster cafe, minus the hipster attitude. Outside is lined with alfresco tables and chairs. Inside you are met with a burst of light - white walls which is reflected back to itself from a mirrored wall.<br />
We ordered The Breakfast Burger, Creme Brulee French Toast and The Breakfast Dog which was the special of the day. All three dishes were delectable, but the French Toast was definitely the favourite out of the three. What I like about Wolfe and Co is they aim to source produce locally, when you eat good quality fresh food you feel it. I wasn't bloated or overly full after three meals.<br />
<br />
Brilliant service, delicious food and liquid gold coffee - make sure you give this place a try. Tell me what you think of it too.<br />

From 5pm on selected Sundays, the MCA Sculpture Terrace will be a playground for handpicked international and electronic acts.
<br />
<br />
On Sunday November 15th I had the pleasure of witnessing and listening to Melbourne's talented Harvey Sutherland. His crisp deep house grooves had me dancing the night away. The looming rain dampened the first half hour of his set, frustrated Harvey stopped his performance to protect his synth and DJ equipment. But once a tarp was arranged to shield the stage, Sutherland came back with a vengeance and put on a show that had himself and patrons bopping late into the evening. I decided to take my camera to capture Harvey and the crowd in action. Below are some images I photographed from Sunday night.
