Kim Dacres (@kim_bo915) gravitates toward renewal and care, transforming worn rubber into expressive sculptural portraits. The New York-based artist twists and braids tired treads into sleek buns and rows typical of Black hairstyles, which she embellishes with gear-like crowns and jewelry made of metal bike chains.

Nothing and nobody is perfect. Imperfections can be found everywhere. From June 18 to 21, experience how these defects and shortcomings, these imperfections and flaws, can lead to fascinating discoveries and beautiful creations at the 2026 Bosch Parade (@boschparade). This edition’s theme, ‘Powered by Defects,’ pays a contemporary tribute to the large and small wrongdoings in the world.

Dedicated to painter Hieronymus Bosch, the Bosch Parade honors the artist’s fascination with the fantastical and absurd. Participating artists embody his philosophy and aesthetic with floating artworks uniquely created for the parade. This year, an international fleet of nineteen new creations will sail down the Dommel river at the centre of ’s-Hertogenbosch, where the artist was born and eventually adopted his name from.

Veja Stories do Instagram Secretamente

O Visualizador de Stories do Instagram é uma ferramenta fácil que permite assistir e salvar stories, vídeos, fotos ou IGTV do Instagram secretamente. Com este serviço, você pode baixar conteúdos e apreciá-los offline sempre que quiser. Se você encontrar algo interessante no Instagram que gostaria de ver mais tarde ou quiser visualizar stories de forma anônima, nosso Visualizador é perfeito para você. Anonstories oferece uma excelente solução para manter sua identidade oculta. O Instagram lançou a funcionalidade de Stories em agosto de 2023, que logo foi adotada por outras plataformas devido ao seu formato dinâmico e sensível ao tempo. Os Stories permitem que os usuários compartilhem atualizações rápidas, sejam fotos, vídeos ou selfies, com textos, emojis ou filtros, e ficam visíveis por apenas 24 horas. Esse limite de tempo cria maior engajamento em comparação com posts comuns. Nos dias de hoje, os Stories são uma das formas mais populares de se conectar e comunicar nas redes sociais. No entanto, quando você visualiza um Story, o criador pode ver seu nome na lista de visualizadores, o que pode ser uma preocupação com a privacidade. E se você quiser navegar pelos Stories sem ser notado? É aí que o Anonstories se torna útil. Ele permite que você assista a conteúdos públicos do Instagram sem revelar sua identidade. Basta digitar o nome de usuário do perfil que você está curioso, e a ferramenta mostrará seus Stories mais recentes. Funcionalidades do Visualizador Anonstories: - Navegação Anônima: Veja Stories sem aparecer na lista de visualizadores. - Sem Conta Necessária: Veja conteúdos públicos sem se cadastrar no Instagram. - Download de Conteúdos: Salve qualquer conteúdo de Stories diretamente no seu dispositivo para uso offline. - Veja Destaques: Acesse os Destaques do Instagram, até mesmo após o prazo de 24 horas. - Monitoramento de Reposts: Acompanhe os reposts ou o nível de engajamento em Stories de perfis pessoais. Limitações: - Esta ferramenta funciona apenas com contas públicas; contas privadas permanecem inacessíveis. Benefícios: - Amigável à Privacidade: Veja qualquer conteúdo do Instagram sem ser notado. - Simples e Fácil: Não há necessidade de instalação de aplicativo ou registro. - Ferramentas Exclusivas: Baixe e gerencie conteúdos de maneiras que o Instagram não oferece.
