Space Invaders

Help – an invasion of blue spikes! British artist Rebecca Glover had an idea to create a sculpture that broke through the space and played with this idea that there’s something latent in the walls; playing around with what lies beyond what you can see. Via Basic Sounds.

Everything I Wish I Could Be

Everything that I wish I could be is a cool and thought-provoking project by Brooklyn based artist and photographer Kent Rogowski. It's an exploration of language, emotions and the desire to change and improve one’s self. There is a self-help book for almost every moment and problem in life; from relationship advice to dealing with the inevitability of death. Each large format photograph, pictures a beautiful and graphic arrangement of title pages and spines, from up to 100 self-help books that are based around a central theme. Together, the titles create larger narratives, which become portraits of emotions, people and events in life.

Modern Love and more

I'm a fan of these immediate and intuitive illustrations by Los Angeles based artist Brian Rea – the former art director for the Op-Ed page of the New York Times. He has produced drawings and designs for books, murals, fashion, posters, music videos, and magazines around the world – and I know why!

Future Primitives

Future Primitives is a new furniture collection by Belgian design duo Muller Van Severen. The designers Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen began with what they saw as primitive forms, and updated them for the future by combining different functions using basic material such as tubular steel and leather.The primitive side is about FORM. The future side of this story is more about FUNCTION. Love the timeless look and the bright colors! Via Dezeen.

Is It Still Type?

This typography project by French graphic designer Jérôme Corgier from Atelier Pariri consists of Arab and Latin characters melted together in new beautiful and playful shapes. They still keep a sort of typographical feeling but become indefinable. Via Visuelle.

Stoneware sculptures

These stoneware sculptures by New York based ceramicist and artist Ebitenyefa Baralaye are so beautiful in material and shape – and love the woody look (big surprice!). His work focuses on issues of identity through abstraction and his imaginative interests lead to creative explorations from an early age and ultimately to a committed dedication to the arts.

Une garde-robe pour mon ombre

Canadian artist Amélie Brisson-Darveau traces her friends’ shadows to make patterns for clothing that she tailors afterwards. The clothes are lying as dismembred bodies or cartographies on the floor. A lightning system allows the visitor to cast his/her shadow on the clothes in order to suit them. Inspired from dance, this work is a research about stillness and movement and about play between absence and presence. I'm a fan!
