“Una al d?a es el resultado de un juego, o de una auto-imposici?n, la de escribir una impresi?n po?tica diaria durante cien d?as. Un juego de pocas reglas que pretend?a adem?s marcar el fin de una experiencia: pan y verdura, un blog in?til. No lo ha logrado, hay que decirlo. Blog y libro siguen libres.” (Pr?logo).

“Una al d?a is the result of a game, or a self-imposition, to write a poetic impression daily for a hundred days. A game of few rules aimed also mark the end of an experience: ‘bread and vegetables’, an useless blog. But that has not succeeded, it must be said. Blog and book remain free.” (Prologue).

tim:what is your favorite camera to work with?

jacob schere:
I switch around all the time. but recently I like the
old 6×6 point and shoot format cameras. Like the Ilford
Sporti, and Baldexitte.

tim:what artists/photographers are you inspired by?

jacob schere:
Probably the biggest impact on me as a photographer
is Lee Freidlander. I’ve been a big fan of his ever
since someone showed me some of his work in university.
And as far as making a statement, Duchamp.

tim:tell us about your educational background. Do you have formal training in art? jacob schere:

I went to a university, and studies within their art
department. I enjoyed being able to dabble in the other
departments such as political science and history classes.

tim: When did you decide to pursue art?

jacob schere:
Can’t say exactly when, but its been a direction i’ve
been traveling since I was a young one.

tim: is there anything else you would like to tell us about your background in regards to how your art has evolved?

jacob schere:
I traveled a lot with my family when I was young, and it
was I that always had the camera, and took the family
pictures. That really got me wanting to travel and
take pictures.

tim:this part is for you to ask yourself a question or write
anything fun nonsense anything you want as long as you want

jacob schere:

I am always surprised when others like pictures of mine
that i dont like so much and vice versa. I can show
someone a piece im crazy about,but someone else is like
ummm ok, i like this ONE. and Im like WHAT????

is that good enough for ya?

tim:how does contemporary life impact your creative practice?

jacob schere:
I react to what I am surrounded by. The sights smells,
colors of everyday, seep in and come out in my works.

tim: What motivates you to create?

jacob schere:
I really wouldnt know what else to do.
If I dont do something creative, i feel empty
and useless.. I MUST CREATE

tim: why did you choose to work in the medium(s) that you use?

jacob schere:

I dont think I chose, photography, it CHOSE me.
as far as collage, and painting, its that dirtiness, and
the pulling all the scraps together and pull off
some raw emotion.

tim: what is your studio like? Can you go into detail about your studio routine? Do you work in silence– listen to music?

jacob schere:
I have 2 studios. My computer studio, is quite plain,
with a 20 inch monitor, and a big sliding door. My painting
studio, is in a basement, with NO natural light. so i put
up a couple of 1000 watt lights. Its an utter mess most
of the time. I like music. so i often play music in
my studio, it gives me energy to keep on going.

tim: Do you have any upcoming exhibits? Where readers can view your work? OR .COMS?

jacob schere:
No exhibits right now, some coming next year.

City Link best of Miami Brimstone127

Brimstone127.com

This past year, we’ve seen a surfeit of excellent new local hip-hop acts (???Mayday!, anyone?) and newsworthy events from some of South Florida’s stalwarts (both Garcia and DJ Khaled dropped albums, for example). Nevertheless, we keep going back to Seth Schere, a.k.a. Brimstone127. When we booked the rapper and producer at last year’s City Link Music Fest, we had only a vague inkling of who he was. He had to follow a slow set at The Poor House by a crooning singer-songwriter that, while poignant, sucked the energy from the room. By the time Brimstone127 had finished performing, the crowd was on its feet, shouting, moving and electrified. And we damn straight knew his name.

Japanese Matsuri ( Festival )

A Few of My Favorite Things: Fry, Tekiya, Games of Chance and the Japanese Summer Matsuri

Weaving my way though the yukata clad crowd allowing the grilling aromas to fill my nostrils. The air was hot and sticky. Like it always is here on a sizzling August night in Tokyo. Lets back track for a minute so you can catch up with me. It’s summer here in Japan, and summer festivals are in full swing. Countless festivals take place across the country, ranging in size from tiny neighborhood get-togethers to ones that bring entire cities together. Typically they fall into one of 4 categories, fireworks, Bon Odori (folk dancing), centred around a religious Shrine or Temple, or one of the newer styles such as a Samba festival in the heart of Tokyo. Whether its attended by hundreds or hundreds of thousands the mood is pretty much the same.

Back to the steamy streets of my festival. Heat rises off the ground as sweat rolled down the back of my neck. The Bon Odori stage is 3 stories tall toped off with a series of Taiko drums, just like a cherry on a sundae erected out of steel pipes and huge red and white cloth. The different teams of dancers lead the crowds in a series of set moves. Like that of country line dancing except that the lines are circular, and instead of cowboy boots and jeans, most wear straw sandals and Yukatas. The folk music comes blasting out over a PA system and the Taiko drums add a thick layer of BOOM to the music. The crowds follow the team dancers and kick up dust in circles around the tower, but all this dancing and shuffling has left me hungry and craving something icy cold to take the sting of the hot night away.

As I walked the street camera in hand, snaping the city that surrounded me. Everywhere I went I bore witness the the changes in my culture. It was the first time as an artist, I just melded with the subject, because there was no seperation between me, and subject. They were one and the same.

On this 6 year anniversary I remember those times. The sadness in our hearts.

I look forward to brighter days.

Marjorie Jeung reviews The Wall Series, a poetic and thought provoking collection of images of decay by photographer Jacob Schere.

Following on from New York Inflections in issue 4 of dontmagazine.com, we go to Tokyo where Jacob Schere takes us on a journey through time. He writes, ‘Here in sleek and ultra modern Tokyo lay images left to peel slowly off the wall. These images are of recent ancient history. Flake by flake they peel from their cement base - like an archaeologist dusting off the centuries to discover a city in ruin, I have discovered these paintings on a wall, left to grunt against the elements.’ Schere is a New Yorker living in Tokyo. He is from a city that’s built for speed but even he is taken aback by the pace of change in his adoptive home. These images of an arrested civilisation located in a kaleidoscope of tenses echo our condition. Their elegant erosion, nobility in neglect and haunting sense of devastation recall our wastefulness and our own inevitable decrepitude. A friend writes, ?????Yes, I love them! Their colours as well as their fragility and how in every flake and peel a new history is added, the pollution where seagulls cannot dive and the sublime intimate connection of two people hidden in the mist-’
