Saguaros rank among the largest of any cactus or desert plant in the world, but a saguaro’s growth is extremely slow. After 15 years, the saguaro may be barely a foot tall. At about 30 years saguaros begin to flower and produce fruit. By 50 years-old the saguaro can be as tall as 2 m. After about 75 years on average, it may sprout its first branches, or “arms”. By 100 years the saguaro may have reached 7.5 m. An adult saguaro is generally considered to be about 125 years of age. Saguaros may live at least 150 years, however, biologists believe that some plants may live over 200 years.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE (2005) dir. Joe Wright
Darcy and the Bingley sisters trying to pull Bingley away from Jane... literally
Modeled in the same composition as the famous dancing faun, this sculpture is made to be a juggler in a particularly crucial moment of an acrobatic trick.
The artist may also have had the Gemran word kunststückemachen in mind, which means both to juggle, and more literally, to make a work of art.
A play on words to describe this playful bronze.
Juggling Man, about 1610-1615, Adriaen de Vries. J. Paul Getty Museum.

Vienna, Austria-based artist Bogi Fabian uses glow-in-the-dark and black light-reactive paints to transform rooms into otherworldly getaways in distant galaxies, jungles, caves or underwater. While some of Fabian’s murals are partially visible when the lights are on, the walls and floors of some of her painted rooms appear completely blank until the lights go out. In the dark the walls and floors come alive with dreamy glowing colors.
"I am trying to create dreamful atmospheres, paint walls and floors and manage to enlighten my art with and without a source of energy.
Thus, the spectator can experience the result in the daylight as well as in the dark, and in that way enjoy it in all its facets. My goal is to create unique spaces and rooms giving them an identity and a soul, where relaxing and living become an experience.”
In addition to her dazzling glow-in-the-dark murals, Fabian also works with bodypainting and glowing ceramics. To check out more of her dreamy artwork visit Bogi Fabian’s website and Facebook page.
