You’ve probably seen My Modern Met posts on Facebook, especially if you and are I FB friends. I repost their blogs all the time because I’m forever and ever inspired by the folks who are showcased for their talents. Artists, photographers, activists, everyday people – they’re always doing something unique, something I desperately need to see.
My Modern Met was started in 2008 to highlight the magnificent things regular folks are doing to send a message, to inspire others, or simply to release the creative energy inside them.
Like the person who carved intricate sculptures out of old books:
And Paddington, the calm and delightful Shar Pei who doesn’t mind playing dress up:
And the Grandmother (and Holocaust survivor) who was depressed, so her grandson suggested they do a fun photo shoot to boost her spirits:
And the artist who created a clear 3D shell for a friendly hermit crab:
And the artist who mixes cartography with illustration to create portraits:
Three things I love about My Modern Met:
- It embraces creatives, even the weird ones.
- It teaches us that art has no limits.
- It gives artists and designers a boost in a tough industry where everything is subjective. Once you make it on My Modern Met, you get noticed.
