Ballpoint Pen Drawings by Gareth Edwards

New works from Gareth Edwards, a UK based artist, predominantly working in ballpoint pen.

"I began working in ballpoint pen because I was to lazy to sharpen a pencil, or put away my paints at the end of the day. The simplicity of the ballpoint pen first appealed to me at school. The initial scribbles I did then, have since become an addiction in trying to create a drawing that is so realistic its deceives its audience into thinking such a detailed piece couldn't have been created with such a humble source."

Hong Chun Zhang

In case of hair phobia close the website. Otherwise please enjoy the artwork of Hong Chun Zhang having a clear and excellent obsession with hairs.

The idea of my graphite hair drawings and oil paintings is about humor, beauty and repulsion. To me, long hair not only looks beautiful, but sometimes it can be very unattractive in particular settings such as hair in the hamburger, egg, wineglass, cigarette, toothpaste and sink. I combine hair and daily used objects to evoke different feelings and emotions through a surrealistic approach.

En Puntas by Javier Pérez

A trailer for the short film "En Puntas" directed by Javier Pérez. The ballerina (Amélie Ségarra, french dancer), whose pointe shoes are extended by a set of sharp kitchen knives, dances and twirls insistently until reaching exhaustion, fighting to maintain balance on the lid of a grand piano set on a stage. Through this work, Javier Perez investigates and reflects once again upon the human condition. Using a strongly metaphorical language rich in powerful symbolism, he reveals the weaknesses that become the boundaries between seemingly irreconcilable concepts such as: beauty and cruelty, fragility and violence, culture and nature or life and death.

Stack Printer by Mugi Yamamoto

“My diploma project is a compact inkjet printer, which is placed on top of a paper pile. When printing, “Stack” slowly moves downwards and swallows the pile until no paper is left. The paper disappears under the printer and exits on top, where it creates a new pile. Thanks to this new way of printing it is possible to remove the paper tray, the bulkiest element in common printers. This concept allows a very light appearance and avoids frequent reloading.” http://www.mugiyamamoto.com/

Street art by Rustam QBic

"With a wildly surreal imagination, artist Rustam QBic from Kazan, Russia creates fish adorned with houses and windows, elephants sprouting giant buildings, and a goose whose feathers are made from a ocean of angry waves. Almost every one of his creations, be it on paper or on a wall is brimming with wonderful ideas and often have to be viewed up close to appreciate their full detail. He most recently completed murals for the LGZ Festival and for Art-Ovrag 2013, and you can see many more paintings, illustrations, and other work over on Facebook." via Colossal

Maiko Takeda fashion photography

Maiko Takeda is a student of jewelry design and fashion, a fact that is apparent in these stunning photographs. Takeda’s portraits feature figures adorned or ornamented, creating interesting juxtapositions of light and shadow, geometry, space, and logic. Out of a simple and seemingly ordered concept emerges something intricate, chaotic, and mysterious. Takeda’s work is both elegant and bizarre, a world where beauty is revealed through obfuscation and composition. Takeda is currently pursuing a Masters in Millinery at the Royal College of Art. via

Polytech Indentity

Moscow's Polytechnical Museum recently ran an open competition for the new identity and chosen the progressive work of Anna Kulachek and Irina Ivanova that you can see below. The new identity is going to ease the interaction between exhibitions and visitors by a visual language based on electric's schemes from school's physic studies. The identity got the new level of customizing by taking the generative modular concept that can be applied either on print and digital productions or on navigation scheme inside the building. The project is also unique just because it is not easy to get modern things done for state institutions like this in Russia.
