28 apr 2015 12:46

magine walking the streets of bustling cities throughout the world – Los Angeles, Madrid, Istanbul, Philadelphia, Bali, San Francisco, etc. – and discovering small crystallized geodes hiding in unexpected and secluded spaces. Such hidden surprises do exist, and they’re the work of Paige Smith, an artist in LA who aims to transform commonplace objects into “anachronic object[s] that no longer follow the ‘regular’ world’s rules.”

Light Installation Inside Abandoned Building In Kaunas, Lithuania
13 jan 2015 15:27

There is this big abandoned building in our city that is stuck between shortage of money and bureaucracy things. It’s so big you can’t avoid it and it’s seen from everywhere. The whole city hates this ‘ghost’, as we call it. So as the proverb says “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade”, I decided to do something about this problem.

Mesmerizing Kaleidoscopic Glass Installations by Olafur Eliasson
23 oct 2014 10:49

Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson may be best known for his expansive installations that encompass entire rooms, but his smaller-scale works are just as compelling. The artist, who is based in Copenhagen and Berlin, often uses mirrors, tinted glass, stainless steel frames, and lightbulbs to create spectacular kaleidoscopic works that transform spaces into illuminated, multicolored realms of beauty. Lit from within, Eliasson's geometric lamps project dazzling hues and patterns on...

Artist Creates Fragile "Waterfalls" That Aren't Made Of Water
07 oct 2014 11:16

Waterglass is a stunning series of installations by artist Steve Tobin. They might look like waterfalls magically flowing through the ceiling, hitting the ground and splashing in all directions, but each cascading piece is made entirely of glass. Actually, each installation is made of 2 to 4 million capillary tubes.

Breathing Underwater Is Not A Problem With This Unique Swimming Pool
06 aug 2014 12:32

Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich created an interactive experience for visitors, allowing each guest to view his Swimming Pool installation both from underwater and above ground. Though it looks like a normal pool, it's actually an illusion created by placing a clear surface towards the upper part of the pool with a little bit of water on top. This gives the illusion of depth from above and water from below.

Artist Covered Entire Kitchen in Millions of Glass Beads
20 aug 2013 13:50

You might think you know what patience means, but American artist Liza Lou clearly has a bit better understanding about what meticulous work really is. Her first large scale work Kitchen took 5 years to complete (1991–1996), and is, as the title suggests, a life-size replica of a kitchen, covered entirely in millions of glass beads. Liza placed each of tiny beads separately using a pair of tweezers, and that way created an amazing mosaic surface to every single item in the room, from walls to newspaper to a bag of chips. In 1999, she was back with her new Backyard project, where she used over thirty million beads! Most of them went into creating 250,000 blades of grass around the picnic table. In 2013 Liza presented her last project, called Color Field, which will on display at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego through November 3rd. Color Field is meant as a tribute to the grasslands of South Africa, where Liza is currently based. The artist says that her work was inspired by traditional African bead crafts, which are still very much alive in the local culture. She cooperated with local artisans, who passed her the secrets of this medium that they have been working with for generations. Check out the mesmerizing results!
