Peechaya Burroughs: We love the work of Australian graphic artist and photographer Peechaya Burroughs who has taken an amusing series of photos in which she created real life emojis and other child-like, playful images, some made from food. Fantastic stuff! 🙂
Elliot Schultz: We love the work of artist Elliot Schultz who created a mesmerising series of embroidered zoetropes as his graduating project from Australian National University, animating the embroidered designs by placing them on turntables with strobe lights synced to the rotation of the discs. Fantastic stuff! 🙂
Freaky Flowers: A beautiful time-lapse video by photographer Greg Krehel, ‘Freaky Flowers’ compares the flowering of cactus from the Echinopsis family, with some real natural fireworks. So amazing – Happy Friday, everyone! 🙂
Alex Garant: Using traditional oil painting techniques, Canadian visual artist Alex Garant creates beautiful portraits, splitting the eyes of her models to produce a strange sensation of movement and a surreal illusion which makes you feel a slight loss of focus and concentration. To see more of Alex Garant’s 2015 work ‘Blur’ and the ‘Double Eyes’ series, we recommend a visit to the website. Fantastic stuff! 🙂
Cheyenne Randall: We love this new batch of photoshopped tattoos on celebrities by artist Cheyenne Randall, who continues to create the imaginary body art of celebrities, from Elizabeth Taylor and Christina Ricci through to James Franco, Bill Murray, Frida Kahlo and Sofia Loren. Very cool! 🙂
Adriana Napolitano: Loving the original creations of Berlin photographer/set designer/crafty Tonia, Adriana Napolitano, who has fun surrounding her models with colourful paper props, such as tentacles, superhero costumes, tools and food, all uniquely handcrafted with a lot of humour.
