With his Flesh Love Returns and Zatsuran series, artist Haruhiko Kawaguchi, aka Photographer Hal, continues to pack couples in vacuum sealed bags, transforming them into pre-packaged, manufactured products, questioning the place and the existence of true love in our society. Slightly WTF but very original creations 🙂
Joan Cornellà: We love the latest weird and WTF creations of Spanish illustrator Joan Cornellà, who is probably one of the darkest and most twisted artists of our time, imagining some absurd, strange, trashy and somewhat tasteless scenes in a deceptively childlike style. They are the ultimate in social commentary.
Dismaland: So we lost our shit when we saw street artist Banksy had finally unveiled Dismaland, a satirical group exhibition inspired by Disneyland. Dismaland brings together many artists from around the world in a giant parody of our consumer society as seen through a trashy, decaying theme park. After rumours and first photos began popping up on the web, the Dismaland project released an official website presenting a map of the park, but also the list of artists including Damien Hirst, Josh Keyes, Escif, Axel Void, Brock Davis, Espo, Mike Ross and of course Banksy. The Dismaland exhibition, located in the Weston-super-Mare in the UK, is open from 22nd August until 27th September 2015. Amazeballs! – LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE 🙂
Kai Ti Hsu: Check out these beautiful digital illustrations by talented and creative artist, Kai Ti Hsu. Based in Taiwan, Kai Ti Hsu’s work is a satirical look at our modern-day society through deceptively soft and delicate illustrations. Kai Ti Hsu says of his work “I am making visual communication digital art, my focus – editorial illustration. My illustrations are taking over the world of social issues and digital expression.” To view more of Kai Ti Hsu’s fantastic work, please visit his website. Enjoy!
