Fat

Erwin Wurm is the artist responsible for making this series of ‘fat cars‘.

Some days I feel like this.

Not sure what it is made of. Looks like fiber glass. But what the heck do I know?

They’re like people, carrying their fat in different ways.

Hot. I’m gunna go eat something sugary and full of carbohydrates.

This Is Limbo

So there I was, crusin around beautiful crime when I stumbled upon a unique artist:

Now this is my kinda art.

They do everything from 2D-3D and installation work.

I couldn’t find their name, probably because I was just fascinated with the work and didn’t look hard enough. All I found was their flickr account: thisislimbo

I’m pretty sure if my soul looked like anything, it would be these hooded characters that appear all through out their work.

Their medium of choice is cardboard, water color, string/yarn, and packing tape.

❤

There is also this little bird character that appears in a lot of their work.

This was piece was made before the disaster in Haiti. Apparently they were tearing up a street and thisislimbo found it a perfect spot to make art.

They also include the phrase “know hope” in most of their pieces.

This is my favorite piece.

I dont have the link to their flickr account, but I’m sure if you search for thisislimbo, they will come up.

Go check them out.

Poor art student< Patterns< Macro Photography

Today interwebs, I wanna talk about patterns.

I’m in love with patterns and textures of all shapes and sizes.

This hair like, line one is in similar fashion of pen and ink work I do.

That’s probably why I think it’s so boss.

Unfortunately I could not find a full image of the completed print, but I thought this was beautiful.

More line patterness.

This photo is actually a macro image is of a dyed slice of an angler fish ovary. Odd, but bamf.

Continuing with the macro images, this is of a discus fish’s scales. It looks like someone put soda between thin, textured plastic or glass plates. Which is probably why I like it.

Any guess as to what that is?

A human sweat gland.

This hot piece of human tissue is the villi of your stomach.

And that, my friends, was patterns and macro photography. Sponsored by: no one. Cause I’m a broke ass art student, and nobody sponsors those.
