]]>Indeed, there’s a plurality in his work based on a manipulation of light and mirrors, that expresses an infinite universe, lurking behind mirror and glass. “My work is my best attempt at giving the impossible, the infinite, a physical, objective existence,” says James. “The materials are merely an extension of the gesture.”
Born in England in 1974, and now based in Los Angeles, James has studied in London at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design and graduated with a degree in fine art painting. Recent sculptures include a bright nickel octahedron, a solar black dodecagon, a 2.5-meter high crystal, and a triacontahedron.
According to James, his intention is to express science, spirituality, and philosophy in an object the purest and most honest way he knows how. Using a blend of high technology and centuries-old techniques, the end results are best experienced live.

]]>“I like to create an immersive installation,” he relayed in an interview with Visual Atelier 8. “Immersion is a central concept in my work because it gives the viewer new and unusual experiences in art and enriched the world of emotiveness. I am interested in developing multi-sensory creations that stimulate all the senses (sight, hearing, smell).”
Indeed, his art is best experienced live, with his work including holographic imagery, virtual reality installations projected shown on LCD screens and 3D printed sculptures. “I exclusively employ sensors that physically involve one’s body and its mobility in space,” says Chevalier. “Either lived by a spectator on his own or by a group, always creates surprising and unexpected results.”
Aside from being immersive, his work also aims to explore recurrent themes such as nature and artifice, flows and networks, virtual cities and ornate designs. The result is installations that are both playful as they are thought-provoking. Well worth following on Instagram.

#okuda #okudart #okudasanmiguelBut much like his colorfully messy creations, his artwork is hard to categorize or pinpoint exactly. “My work is more related to surrealism and pop-art, which I discovered in school, than to street art or what is known as contemporary art,” he explained in an interview with Design Boom.
Sometimes described as Pop Surrealism meets Street Art, his work, incorporating colorful geometric patterns, portraying anything from animals and human figures to skulls and religious iconography. With his art raging in scale and size, his work also includes massive murals as well as whole buildings transformed into colorful installations. “I love to work on a large scale because it’s more breathtaking and I prefer to select this size of the project,” explained San Miguel.
Incredibly enough, these murals don’t rely on sketches. “I love to draw directly on the walls and keep creating and improvising during the process,” says San Miguel. “I need to see in person the whole architecture and try to play with that.”

]]>“I use feral animals in my work as a metaphor for man’s mismanagement and overuse of the environment,” said Parer in an interview with Kaltblut Magazine. “I am interested in how easily we anthropomorphize to tell our stories without fully acknowledging that we are animals too.”
Based in Tasmania, Parer’s public art takes her around the globe and has so far been exhibited in 100 cities. “I live in an island state in the south of Australia called Tasmania,” says Parer, explaining that “it is a land of great dramatic beauty with moody skies and landscapes and holding narrative qualities that I like to thread in my work. Light coming through the darkness depicts a sense of hope or spirituality.”
Inspired by the dramatic Tasmanian landscape, her artwork explores the natural world, in all its wonder and fragility. A worthy subject in this day and age. Follow her journey on Instagram.

: @sophieaprilIndeed, her vivid environments mix luminous color and radiant light, provoking a heightened sensory awareness in the viewer. According to West, our understanding of color can only be realized through the presence of light. And so, by playing and adjusting the color, she brings out the intensity and composition of her spatial arrangements.
“My most vivid memories of childhood are based on light and color, not necessarily together but sometimes,” she recalled. “These experiences would be in a car, my dad driving through Barnsley town center, which at the time was lit with incandescent and neon lights. The light was much warmer then, an enticing glow.”
“I was always very perceptive, even as a child, and I would pay attention to the reflections on the floor, particularly on the wet floor so common in the north of England,” added the British artist. “I found it really alluring. I have a lot of memories of being driven about places and being in transit.”
Her work is best experienced in person, but you can also catch glimpses of it on West’s designated Instagram page.

]]>Mostly abstract, her art is an exploration of colors and shapes. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan School of Art & Design, she has exhibited her work at and painted murals in Detroit, New York, Chicago, Canada, and France. And with a growing audience of more than 25 thousand followers on Instagram, the hype is real.
“I was struggling for a while right after college with anxiety and spread myself thin working on a lot of freelance projects I didn’t love just to make ends meet, so I reluctantly accepted a full-time position at an advertising agency,” she recalled in an interview with the Shinola blog. “I loved learning about advertising, but also found my passion pulling me in a different direction. That experience taught me how to find humor even in intense workplace environments and gave me the self discipline to structure my time more effectively.”
Nowadays, she’s hard at work as a full-time artist, in addition to working on several freelance projects. “Really, I just love any opportunity to make new work,” she admits. “And doing so in Detroit makes that special.”
Check out some of her wonderful creations.

]]>Her murals have a sense of urgency to them, bringing forward phrases and mottos such as: “Together We Stand,” “The Power of Girl,” and “Raise Your Hopes.” Simple, yet powerful, her murals serve as uplifting mantras, a call for action, and a symbol of positivity within the city landscape.
“I have my own practice making paintings and I do commissioned work alongside this – predominantly large-scale public murals,” explained Maciver in an interview with Lecture in Progress. “I also sometimes collaborate with brands on products or campaigns.”
Talking about her work process she added: “I work from my studio above Ridley Road Market in Dalston. Every day looks different depending on what projects I’ve got on. There’s always a lot of admin and answering emails – that doesn’t change. Sometimes I’ll be planning a mural, sometimes reading and writing as research, sometimes contacting suppliers, sometimes I’ll be outdoors painting a mural, sometimes prepping boards to paint. It’s very varied. I also often travel internationally to paint murals, or to exhibit work abroad.”
“I’m not much of a self-promoter,” she admitted. “The large-scale nature of my work has helped in this respect, as it’s like a giant advert for me in a way. Instagram is also helpful, although I have, at times, a tortured relationship with it. If I could, I’d leave it altogether as I find it overwhelming to be confronted with so many images, particularly the highlights of everyone else’s lives and careers – it’s distracting. So now I don’t follow anyone, I just put out what I’m doing as much as I can, which isn’t much.”
With 100k followers on Instagram, it’s a good thing she continues sharing her work, adding a pop of color and positivity to our otherwise bland feeds.

]]>In 2015, he inaugurated in Paris on the occasion of Nuit Blanche, his “Maison Fond” is a work installed on the forecourt of the Gare du Nord in Paris which invites us to question the climate change. “The extreme weather events associated with climate change show us that even the most iconic landmarks, left untouched for centuries, can be vulnerable to changes in the planet . ” If the evolution of the climate threatens the human existence, the architecture, symbol of our civilizations, is also in danger.
Erlich is also famous for his works such as “La Piscine”, presented at the Venice Biennale in 2001 and since then permanently installed at the Kanazawa Museum in Japan. Another his famous work is “The Building”, a facade of a life-size Haussmann building on which children and adults can hang without fear of vertigo. An ingenious installation based on a set of mirrors, it gives the effect of hanging on the facade similar to Spider-Man. The artist thus diverts the familiar elements of the urban setting to act on the public’s unconscious and snap up visitors.
The Argentinean artist does not create a space but a situation with the audience, who is often confronted with the strange experience of its own presence.

]]>The post The Plastic Installations of Thomas Deininger appeared first on MobiSpirit.
]]>At first glance, the workspace of this Rhode Island-based artist looks like a cluttered space of all these things that are expected to get rid of during yard sales, small plastic toys, household utensils, old lighters etc. The pile of objects, often in bright colors, looks intriguing. His art process consists of assembling them into families (by association of subject or color, matter or universe), gluing them, or mounting them on supporting platforms, which form famous canvases, animals or portraits.
Like the paintings of Arcimboldo in his time, the anamorphoses of the sixteenth century and the impressionist technique, his plastic installations (which began in 1994) are somewhere halfway between sculpture, painting and installation, and offer a quite fascinating setting. The abyss of modern man, congested, or perhaps well reassured, by the objects of consumption surrounding him.

]]>Indeed, these works can only be appreciated from just one point of view; this is the very concept of anamorphosis: an optical illusion where the deformed works recompose instantly from a certain angle of view. A step on the side and everything breaks down.
