From the Hip Friday

Pepsi Lady.

Today’s photo from the hip comes from Emy at Emy in the World. Emy taught in the sandbox (Abu Dhabi) last year but is now settling down to life in Chicago. Her blog is full of lovely art projects and thoughtful quotes. I hope you’ll take a look.

Emy snapped this photo while passing by on the bus in Budhanilkantha, Nepal. In Emy’s words, “There’s something about the juxtaposition of the woman in bright traditional clothing under the Pepsi sign, then the trash in the street next to greener-than-green natural scenery that I find layered and appealing.” I must agree.

Thanks, Emy!
