Tasty layers


Here is a very cool video I came across on Anna ter Haar. Almost more interesting is how much work they did and put into it. I watched the second video first and wondered what they were doing covering up so many interesting layers. Turned out cool.

A perfectly quaint duo

Photobucket

Add this to my list of favorite things. Work collaborated between two of my newer favorite artists Saelee Oh and Souther Salazar. Even those names, what ring to it! The artists share a similar blend of folk craft, nature inspired palette. Between Saelee's intricate paper cutouts and Souther's peacefully awkward clay creatures they represent the cultural return of appreciation for traditional hand-made methods. By recycling scraps and images these artists are rebuilding the beauty that was carelessy thrown away before them.
