Small World by Manuel Archain.
“ The usual, everyday dream, our out of scale perception and how each one of us is so into our personal world that we cannot see what is happening around us. The size and weight of things is so distorted, we can even manage to move into a small world. Why the size of a truck could not be the same as my personal scale of a tea cup?”
Utopia Conjuring Therapy, Saya Woolfalk, 2012.
“Through the use of psychedelically-colored exhibits, scientific slide shows, dance performances, and a very multi-disciplinary artistic practice, Woolfalk is learning how to use art shows to create utopian worlds in and of themselves.”
Light Cave, installation by LA art duo FriendsWithYou. Currently on view at The Standard, High Line.
“FriendsWithYou is the fine art collaborative of Samuel Borkson and Arturo Sandoval III, working collectively since 2002 with the sole purpose of spreading the positive message of magic, luck, and friendship.
As artists working in a variety of mediums, including paintings, sculpture, large-scale experiential installations, public playgrounds, published works and live performances, FriendsWithYou’s mission is to affect world culture by cultivating special moments of spiritual awareness and powerful, joyous interaction.”
Photo collages by Alexandra Bellissimio.
“Her imagery explores the physical and psychological relation between nature and humans beings when combined through the use of collage. Through this unusual unification, her collages evoke a sense of empathy, intimacy, and harmony when humans and nature coexist.”
NYC Spaghetti. Awesome packaging by Alex Creamer.
Unfortunately it’s only a concept product, created for a university project, but still pretty genius.
