In The Name Of Art ↓

Roaming Graffiti Snails

“Most people have to shell out to give their homes a makeover – not so for these multi-coloured molluscs. The flashy snails have had their drab shells given a paint job for nothing – and they didn’t even have to move a muscle.” w/ photos

Tire Tube Woman

A strange woman wearing a massive tire tube as a hat. That is all, Goodbye. w/ photos

The Dog Flower Sculpture

“Puppy, the dog flower sculpture by Jeff Koonz, is able to show its personality even placed beside the Guggenheim monstre museum by Frank Gehry.” w/ photos + video

The Mona Leia

Jim Hance, from Strangely Drawn, puts an amazing spin on the classic Mona Lisa with a touch of Star Wars called The Mona Leia. w/ photo

Imaginary Animals

A talented artist who goes by the human name of “Alexandre Jorge” made wicked sculptures of imaginary animals that will haunt your daydreams for the next few minutes. w/ photos

The Chapel For One

“Dave offers a tribute to “Saint Martin” (the homeless saint) with a 3 color screen print on cardboard that is designed so it can be cut-out and folded into a 3-dimensional one man church; to get away from the chaos of life.” w/ photos

Distorted Human Figures

“Durgin’s photographs reflect his fascination with the figure as a sculptural entity. His complex arrangements of the body require extreme contortion to achieve an austere effect, as if the figures have been abstracted. The gestures examine his own corporal boundaries as well as those of the performers he works with and are impressive in their ability to seemingly defy physical limitations.” w/ photos

Information Overload

“In the age of the information revolution our appetite for the latest in everything seems to be incapable of satiation. Urgently! is a sculpture by Alexei Shulgin & Aristarkh Chernyshev and depicts the information overload that is a commonplace occurrence.” w/ photo + video

Creative Map Art

“Every day millions of people use maps to take them places. But what about maps as a work of art? Here are a few artists that use maps as their muse. (And I bet they never get lost!) Matthew Cusick is an artist that makes collages out of old maps, atlases and geography textbooks. His work of art contains maps that go nowhere.” w/ photos

Human Barbie Dolls

The photos of these Human Barbie Dolls may appear to be NSFW but they’re done “in the name of art”…. So on that note, enjoy yourself.
