The Omoshiro Block – or fun block – uses laser-cutting technology to create what is a hidden object in disguise. At first glance it’s just a square cube of notepaper, but as the paper is used an object begins to appear! Make your way through all of the paper to excavate it.
Jared Small has always been captivated by the decaying homes and rundown neighborhoods of the Southeast United States. Despite socioeconomic shifts and exterior facelifts, their bones remain the same.
The center of each painting focuses on a painstakingly accurate image of a house or individual while the background dissolves into abstract elements that devise an emotional and dramatic interpretation of the subject. This technique allows Small to hypnotize the viewer into a dream-like state, caught between the realities of the obvious image and the possible mysteries that lay beneath the surface.
Xenia Taler‘s casually refined lifestyle goods have an undeniable signature look that draws you right in. My favorite pieces in her shop at the moment is this collection of geometric incense holders that are handmade in Canada. Each one has a cork bottom to protect surfaces and wipes clean with a cloth.
I’ve been overdue a grand adventure for some time now, and photographer Cody Cobb‘s landscapes have me daydreaming on overdrive. Through his work Cobb strives to capture small moments of stillness in nature.
For weeks at a time, Cobb wanders the American West alone in order to fully immerse himself in seemingly untouched wilderness. This isolation allows for more sensitive observations of both the external landscape as well as the internal experience of solitude.
Through subtle arrangements of light and geometry, the illusion of structure appears as a mystical visage. These portraits of the Earth’s surface are an attempt to capture the emotion of the land as much as the topography.
I’ve bookmarked these oversized stoneware necklaces by Brooklyn’s Shape Shape Shape Shape in no less than three places. The unexpected drama they bring to any outfit cannot be overstated.
Kristoffer Marchi‘s sculptural paper accessories are the stars of this series of portraiture shot by the Swedish photographer. Each one takes on an air of playful drama, with the accessories shown in fun colors and the models captured against simply understated backdrops.
Dripping is the combined efforts of creative director Cristo Oviedo and illustrator Paula Posadas Alvarez. Brightly colored flower petals drip with paint that’s caught mid-flow with the camera. Each piece of the collection is stark, graphic, and alive.
