One of the print ads for jobsintown’s ‘life is too short for the wrong job’ campaign a new video commercial released by German employment website “jobsintown” joins the company’s playful visual representations of their slogan ‘life is too short for the wrong job’. The company’s four-year print ad campaign, designed by scholz & friends berlin, feature human workers powering everyday machines: a hardworking woman lives within every laundromat machine, scrubbing at your clothes, and an Elvis impersonator spends his workday in each jukebox you encounter. Taking a different approach to the same slogan, the video commercial was created by grabarz & partner and depicts a fisherman whose true calling lies outside of his current profession.

BENN AND DAN IN 1979 & 2010, London
compelled by the qualities and narrative-charged nature of vintage images, buenos aires-based photographer irina werning has started a series of portraits fittingly titled, ‘back to the future’. Largely consisting of diptychs, the project has subjects re-enact a childhood photograph from their past in their current image today. the result is a surreal, time traveling carbon copy that manages to capture a sense of the subject’s biography.
Alarmingly detailed in props, image quality, colour balance and expressions,the haunting portraits are at once nostalgic and charming, illustrating that – even with the inevitable effects of time – we are who we are; people change, but they don’t change.
