Painting Reality -> Pieces of Paper

This is a pretty fun and interesting environmental art piece, or public art project by ‘Pedazos de Papel’ (Pieces of Paper), or at least that’s who I was able to track back to for a source from Vimeo. I may be wrong. Regardless, the paint is released onto the pavement by bicycles and the rest of [...]

Daniel Kornrumpf -> Knit Portraits

I’ve seen these knit portraits by Daniel Kornrumpf blogged and re-blogged quite a bit in the last few days, and rightly so. They are nothing short of amazing. The artist’s attention to detail and sensitivity to skin-tone and color reminds me of some of the works created by Lucian Freud. Many more to see on his [...]

Thomas Couderc & Clément Vauchez -> Helmo.fr

One of the more inspiring portfolios that I have seen in a long time is coming from France based design duo Thomas Couderc & Clément Vauchez. Everything from photo composite fine art prints to beautifully designed, energetic typography poster concepts, their portfolio site is a great destination to harvest some fresh ideas.

Mindrelic – Manhattan in motion from Mindrelic on Vimeo.

Great timelapse work coming from Rochester, NY based videographer Josh Owens. From his sweeping slow pans over time square to the street level pedestrian shots this video is absolutely stunning.

Julien Vallée -> Tangible Design AOL

I dig these tangible designs by Montréal based graphic designer Julien Vallée. They were created for a recently launched artists site created by AOL (aolartists.com) that is meant to be a community for sharing new inspirational art and design. His combination of sculptural form and simply placed san-serif type really catches my eye. More great work to [...]

Supakitch x Koralie x Posca -> Elr°y

This is a very nice documentary and interview of street artists Supakitch and Koralie for the website of the markers brand ‘Posca’. The works that are highlighted in this video are absolutely incredible. Very much worth the view, check out the related links below as well.

PaperCraft InfoGraphics -> Tien-Min

I discovered these wonderfully rendered papercraft infographics this morning while checking out what was new on Behance. They were created by a young designer named Tien-Min who was born and raised in Taipei, Taiwan. She graduated from the National Chengchi University in Taiwan and furthered her studies at my alma mater, Pratt Institute in New York. I really [...]

The Mountain -> Terje Sorgjerd

The Mountain from Terje Sorgjerd on Vimeo.

Notes from Vimeo page:

“This was filmed between 4th and 11th April 2011. I had the pleasure of visiting El Teide.
Spain´s highest mountain @(3718m) is one of the best places in the world to photograph the stars and is also the location of Teide Observatories, considered to be one of [...]

Mikko Lagerstedt -> 'Winter' Photo Set

These are my three favorite selects from Finland based photographer Mikko Lagerstedt’s incredible ‘Winter’ photo set found on the Behance network. I enjoy his post manipulation and his apparent interest in natural outdoor subject matter. It seems that I’ve seen a great deal of amazing Finnish photography this year, it makes me want to go for [...]

Color Stereo Photographs -> San Francisco 1906

I first heard news of these fascinating and newly discovered stereo photographs this morning on the local news while getting ready to head off to work. Taken to be viewed through a stereo-optic viewer, these images were captured by color photography pioneer Frederick Eugene Ives in 1906, about six months after the massively destructive ‘Great Quake’ [...]

Make it Better -> Clim

MAKE IT BETTER from Clim on Vimeo.

The above animation was produced by London based motion designer who goes by the name ‘Clim’. His portfolio is full of clean and clever logo-type design and graphic works that are sure to inspire. Great use of color throughout his portfolio as well.

'Netherland' Collage Art -> David Van Alphen

Chicago based artist and gallery curator David “Netherland” van Alphen is the creator of these wonderfully obscure 1970s charged collage works. Consistent in theme and playfully nostalgic, his site makes for an entertaining and inspirational place to click around. You can also purchase some of his prints here.

Refraction -> Jesse Zanzinger

Refraction from Jesse Zanzinger on Vimeo.

Shot with a 5D, Jesse Zanzinger captured this very creative oil and water macro footage. It appears that he also overlaid some of it over background video footage taken from ‘Sesame Street Pinball Number Count‘ (I think that’s the video he’s referring to). All placed together it makes for an interesting effect. Below are [...]

Rheinfall Festival -> LICHTFAKTOR

Cologne, Germany based light painting, photography and videography artists collective called LICHTFAKTOR keep rolling out amazing new works, each one more intricate and beautiful than the latter. Since I first happened across their work a couple of years ago, their technique has become more refined and impressive. I love the background scenery and the level of [...]

Musically Inspired Album Covers -> Simon Page

I came  across some fairly new works by Simon Page on his Flickr stream yesterday, which then led me to his Behance page. Apparently, he’s been working hard on a lot of album covers. The above covers were all inspired by ‘simply listening to the music’, as he states on his Behance project page. The [...]
