Yesterday, I saw an interesting tweet from EarthPix with one of the most beautiful photos I’d ever seen. A stunning sliver of moon looming giant over a minuscule sun, beautifully reflected in the crystal water below.
I was stunned by this photo and how beautiful earth can be… but perhaps it’s too good to be true?

Jamian Juliano-Villani is an artist based in NYC whose paintings are an interesting mix of reappropriated cartoon pop culture and surreal, unsettling, and sometimes narrative scenes in a flat, graphic style. Jamian’s work is similar to some contemporary nostalgia-referencing artists but retains a uniquely mysterious quality.

I’ve always associated crocheting with my grandma. I grew up around crochet doilies as a kid and always remember them at holidays or hanging around once-a-year china. Though knitting and embroidery have enjoyed a crafty-cool renaissance in recent years, I’m surprised the art of crochet hasn’t been resurrected in the same way. For one, it only uses one needle instead of knitting’s two, and if the insanely awesome work of Kate Jenkins is any indication, the possibilities for creating something truly unique are endless.

Scrolling through Will Bryant’s excellently curated tumblr, I came across the fun work of Minneapolis-based artist and illustrator Eddie Perrote. Eddie’s work is full of vibrant, tripped out, intricate images that look like a super weird party world.

Mihoko Ogkai’s ongoing series Milky Ways explores the ideas of life, death and rebirth. The dead or dying human life forms are constructed with fibre-reinforced plastic and embedded LED lights that project star-like fields of light on the surrounding gallery walls. Tiny holes dot the figures; the light emitted transforms these tortured, decaying bodies into incredible portraits of the night sky.
