Floating Graffiti by Boa Mistura
5 Mar
Boa Mistura, a spanish art collective composed of five self-described ‘graffiti rockers’, has organized a participatory urban art project in vila brâsilandia, one of the favelas in são paulo, brazil. the artists, whose name comes from ‘Buena Mezcla’ (‘good mixture’ in portuguese), worked with residents to paint and reface the winding ‘vecos’ and ‘vielas’ of the Favela with uplifting messages. viewed from the proper angle and distance, the works cause words like ‘beleza’ (‘beauty’) and ‘orgulho’ (‘pride’) to seemingly float in the passageway, thanks to an illusion effect based on the careful painting of stretched-out text in accordance with the 3D perspective.

Robotic Steampunk Insects by Lindsey Bessanon
23 Feb
Lindsey Bessanon began her creative career as a jeweler in arizona, USA in 2003, casting insects in gold or silver. However, bessanon’s work soon morphed into one more sculptural in nature as she hoped to appreciate the coloring of each bug by adding metallic parts, resulting in a collection of robotic bugs.
Bessanon first acquires dried, dead insects from suppliers on ebay, special collectors or entomologist websites. When ready to begin work on a piece, the artist re-humidifies the specimens in order to properly shape them. Bessanon then repositions the legs and wings, fanning them in her intended arrangement. following the initial appendage setting, the artist pins the insect to a piece of styrofoam, allowing her To more easily add the cogs, gears, levers and steel mechanisms to the insect. After a period of two weeks, the intricate robotic bug sculpture is completed– the colors of the insect play off of the silver and gold of the gears, bringing together the two media preferred by the artist.

Bobby Neel Adams: Agemaps
9 Feb
New York-based photographer Bobby Neel Adams addresses the effects of the passage of time with his recent project ‘agemaps’. A collection of photographs showing the same person at two points within their life demonstrates the affects of aging upon the human body, reminding us of our mortality. the images are printed at the same proportions and hand spliced to create a dual representation of the person across decades.
‘The point at which the images are physically torn together becomes the boundary line (or bridge) between decades of passing time, to me they provide an eerie life-map, staring towards our future.’ – bobby neel adams
