As if that wasn’t enough to fall in love with a whiskey unlike any other, it has also spearheaded a new category in spirits as the first American single-malt whiskey.

    LUKAS WEGWERTH AT GALLERY FUMI

    July 13, 2020 - By

Maybe it is our brokenness, our cracks, bumps and bruises that allows the space for love to fill in the blanks and create something unique, new and altogether breathtaking. Lukas Wegwerth started working on his crystallization vases in 2014. He begins by placing a cracked ceramic into a chemical solution and crystals grow along the cracks; he can of course remove the vase at any moment, and it is his decision whether…

    April 7, 2017 - By 

    BALANCE IS BEAUTIFUL When it gets hot and heavy outside don’t forget to hydrate. With the summer heat bearing down on our bare bronzed shoulders and the warm humidity hugging our skin skimping on skincare is all too easy. The seasonal trend is always to minimize the obstruction caused by beauty products, because nobody enjoys the oppressive feeling of ointments and lotions clinging to the face during the hottest season of the year.  However, the summertime increase in outdoor activities can exhaust the skin, so remembering to hydrate and balance with a toner can help prevent dryness, dullness, blemishes, and…
