Seeing the World Differently

Similar to my post on illusions of daily objects.

Sandrine Estrade Boulet turns normal street scenes into amazing artwork. Some people see the world differently then others. She has a marvelous imagination. Some of her illustrations and creations are obvious once they are visualized, but I would not see it just walking down the road.



Check out more of her illustrations in her gallery.

Lighting of Importance

Check out these incredible shadow sculptures. When light filters through them, hidden messages are unveiled through bent wires, cotton clouds, cardboard boxes, and shrubbery.


The artist's play on words and images give rise to a surprising aesthetic effect, while the kinds of materials he chooses is reminiscent of poetry.

Bread Palette

'Bread Palette', a project developed by Japanese designer ryohei yoshiyuki which aims to rekindle people's artistic sense by encouraging the experimentation of colors on slices of bread.


Using condiments as paints and bread baked in the shape of paint palettes with a hole to insert your thumb, users are meant to mix and match colors and find elements of play in one's ordinary, everyday activities.

Can not image how complicated the production running was with those music video. A music video for Midnight Juggernauts‘ song “Lara Vs The Savage Pack,” directed by Lucinda Schreiber and Beatrice Pegard. It was “shot frame by frame, then re-shot using over 2000 printed pieces of paper.”

When the canvas of the photo becomes the art form that can feel like a dream world. Work by Jan Kriwol.

Here's a bonus photo I posted from an unknown artist, but could well be from this very artist. Photoshop is a great weapon in a graphic designers arsenal.

Chewing Gum High Heels



Kobi Levi's "Chewing Gum" high heels are a combination of art and fashion. This is one pair of shoes that you won't be taking a stick or a rock to peal off that unwanted piece of gum from.

Bringing Colors to Life

I'm on a dance video posting frenzy. This one comes more as an abstract art dance.

Using a speaker, a membrane and paint, it is graceful art of paint movements. And this artistic paint glamor is captured in 5,000 frames per second creating a clarified slow motion effects.
