Ladylike Legs

Fantastic surreal watercolour paintings by Tokyo-based artist Akiko Kobayakawa. The cute, innocent animals with their sexy ladylike legs has a surreal and yet very realistic feel and I love the delicate, poetic colours. In her work Akiko Kobayakawa likes to combine different things like beauty and ugliness, male and female, animals and humans, and she explores the boundary between them and makes it ambiguous.

Looking and Touching

Elisa Noguera Lopez is a London based artist mainly working with photography, because of its ability to create images which contain multiple disjunctive narratives. In her photos objects and living things are stripped of instrumentality, functionality and identity, and she is fascinated by surfaces, shapes, materials and gestures as well as the relationship between looking and touching. I totally wants to keep looking and touching! Via Little Paper Planes.
