So have they not traveled through the earth and have hearts by which to reason and ears by which to hear? For indeed, it is not eyes that are blinded, but blinded are the hearts which are within the breasts. (noble Quran: 22:46)
that proofs that this design is more than just an eye sore... its purely came from a passionate heart.. that is the real artist.. its an really honor to me.. i'm a big fan of S60.. :)
It's unbelieable pic from a blind man (and never seen even one time in his life) sunlights shadows clouds skies and all 3d perpectiive how it's possible I can undersatand of 3d stuffs little bit but how can he imagine shadows too ? just amazing !

i'm sorry, I love Eşref Armağan's art, and understand the difficulties he overcomes in representing colour and perspective, but this campaign is total bullshit "there's more to life than a volvo, that's why we wont show our all-new volvo s60"... "burn on other manufactures, our new car looks like shite, let's exploit a blind man" go for it.
i argee. This man is an artistic master, but why does volvo have the need to make such a campain? i don't need to see something like this to know what the new volvo is going to look like, that tender music nonsence. The only thing that interested me about that video, is the Artist and his skills. I wonder how he knows what clouds look like, and why he wears a watch. is it a brille watch? cool.
HIs name is esref armagan check out his documentaries on you tube u will get the sense of what is actually going on in his mind , i was amazed when I first saw it !
Absolutely brilliant. I wish all ad campaigns were this well thought out and reflective of what the company is all about. Great craftsmanship all around.
Wonderful idea for an ad and they did it astonishingly well. Eşref Armağan is truly an amazing artist, both for his unique ability and how he can light our world while he cannot see any. Ironically, it can be said that he's gifted in a way.
Well Steve Mattin kinda quit around 4 months ago or something, Peter then came back to volvo from his position at ford. To become in charge of volvo design......... again
Yeah, and Peter Horbury was the first one to introduce the new Volvo design language with the first S80, now he's reintroducing a new design language for the S60, so he's a new Volvo design guru trend setter? hehehe...
haha Guess so,but I hold grave fears for Volvo if it is taken over by Geely Holding Group Co.(Chinas biggest automaker outside of state control) for me, that would mark the end of the company. I believe they would start a production plant in China to reduce production costs..... And quality, so thats already one fundamental support of Volvo's reputation gone, in addition to the Geely using the safety design from Volvo, which will, in term destroy their advantage in safety over other companies
Very very touching..... But why does he need a watch?.... When he takes it off to start painting? But otherwise... I am fascinated by those people. Even though they are not capable to things other people can, they try and never stop and never feel bad. They live........ Those are very very strong people
This video is truly beautiful. Thank you Volvo for doing this. I saw this yesterday with the unsynced sound and I just had to watch it all the way through again!
