There are some films that stick with you longer than others - films that touch our hearts and we go back to over and over. Here are some pieces that give off the same energy that some of the greatest classics give.
Singing in the Rain has been one of the most beloved films since it's release in 1952. It is a film with a lot of movement and playful moments.

Makiko Harris' work in
Summer Gingham because she has both soft organic sections next to precise and intentional lines.
Summer Gingham is also the perfect pair because of the colors used in the film - being that the title is "singing in the rain" there are going to be blues and yellows and greens. New beginnings and exciting life ahead.
One of Audrey Hepburn's most iconic roles with one of
Angela Chrusciaki Blehm's
most iconic pieces feels almost too perfect to be true. The glamor and playfulness about both the film and the sculpture really create such a sweet, timeless and elegant duo.

Kevin Brent Morris' Untitled (beetle on pink) reflect each other so beautifully in that they both have a focused item on top of a focal point. They both feel dangerously beautiful and exiting.
Alfred Hitchcock was the master of suspense and the king of color. He used a wide palette to express moods and psychological states, never better than in the very artistic Vertigo (the plot of which centers around a painting!), in which green and red are brilliantly used in a swirl of emotionality.
Roma Osowo
uses the same sea green and bold choices to create a similar effect (with less murder, of course) which grabs the eye and the imagination.
Timelessness always pairs nicely with timelessness. Find what speaks to you.
