Japanese artist Hirotoshi Ito takes your average rock and transforms them into everyday and not-so-everyday pieces. The sweater is the most impressive in my opinion. All the weaves had to be carved in- must’ve been super tedious. Anywho, dentures, zippers and rocks… Hirotoshi probably had them laying around and decide to create …

These are definitely a bit more complicated than paper planes! Artist Lisa Rodden intricately cuts paper into fascinating motifs for you and me to ogle at. It’s pretty precise in the photo and I bet in person it’s even more impressive. Check out her other works on her website. My favorite has …

How cool is this?! The only unfortunate thing is that I have no idea who the artist/photographer is. I do have to say the clothes are pretty bland. if they stepped it up with a Gaultier or McQueen photo shoot with a fantabulous chalk background, that would be killer. Love …

Remember that awful awful nuclear meltdown in Chernobyl? People had to move forever far away, wild animals were fenced into the contaminated area, people across Europe started developing thyroid problems and weird growths, basically, it was a disaster and 26 years later, it’s still inhabitable.

These are the latest series from artist Scott Scheidly. I’m only really attracted to them because of the pink. It does look funny that some of the most powerful men are wearing pink. Although, I am a staunch supporter of men wearing pink. My 7 year old has a pink gingham …

Artist Ron Ulicny creates pieces that make you think for a long damn time. I like those kinds of artists. For instance, the fat sumo with an iPAD… shouldn’t he be putting on his diaper instead of playing ‘Angry Birds’? And is he an iPAD dock at the same time? These are …

Israeli artist Ronit Baranga knows exactly how to scare the crap out of dinner guests. These dinnerware are laden with creepy mouths (with teeth) and fingers of the unknown. I don’t know what’s creepier, the finger teacups or the those damn Jabbawockeez masks. Anywho, is it me or are all the mouths …
