Alina Grasmann art |
“I am a painter and I mostly work in series and in large scale and oil on canvas. Each series is based on a specific location, that I try to examine more closely in my paintings. I have just finished the work on my last series „Sculpting in Time“, which was on view at Fridman Gallery in NYC until early January. The paintings show rooms of the urban utopia Arcosanti, which was designed by Frank Ilyod Wright student Paolo Soleri in the desert of Arizona. Ideally, my work is shifting somewhere between fact and fiction. The rooms shown in „Sculpting in Time“ become chambers of wonders, in the sense of baroque imaginariums. I try to fill a ruin, so to speak, with life again. But you will never find people in my paintings.”

Media.Work for SPACE10 |
SPACE10 is a research and design lab, on a mission to create a better everyday life for people and the planet.
Exploring societal, technological, and environmental shifts likely to influence people’s lives in the coming years, they wanted to visualize the different ways that climate crisis is manifesting itself, through climate stressors.
“To support their different projects and articles relating to the crisis, these visuals will then be used to highlight in a beautiful way, nature we all love and remember.
Our task was to create visualizations of three phenomena: wildfires, floods, and droughts. The focus was on how these processes unfold over time and, eventually, become massive forces that alter entire ecosystems.” - says Media Work
“Visually, we looked for the balance between aesthetically pleasing and alarming — we had to show the phenomena as something important that is happening here and now, although, not to create frightening catastrophic images that would leave the viewer hopeless.” - continues Media Work

Jon Ching Art |
Jon Ching is a self-trained artist originally from Kaneohe, Hawaii and currently lives and works in Los Angeles, California. Steeped in natural beauty of O’ahu, Hawai’i, his island upbringing instilled in him indigenous lessons of appreciation and respect for nature, forming the foundation of his fascination with the natural and wild world, which deeply influences and drives his current work.
Jon’s devoted art practice and detailed realism is inspired by the interconnectedness of nature. His work is a surreal imagining of what limitless wonders and combinations nature can produce. New creatures and symbioses emerge in his meticulously rendered oil paintings, exemplifying the endless potential of life on Earth through metaphor and allegory.
Jon’s ultimate hope is to inspire love and admiration for the universally unique beauty and intrigue of our planet. He regularly works to bring awareness to endangered species, the current mass extinction crisis and climate change and continues to partner with environmental organizations in fundraising and educational efforts.

OFFF 2021 Virtual Experience |
Until we can meet face-to-face again, OFFF moves to a virtual world powered by Futura Space where all the activities scheduled for the 2021 edition will be celebrated. OFFF is hosting an immersive experience as you’ve never seen before. They are excited to introduce you to out-of-this-world realities. This metaverse broadly understood as a persistent, shared virtual realm is no longer just fodder for science fiction.
“This world OFFF 2021 powered by Futura Space will always be on; it’s live and in real time; its experiences and content will be created for and by our community. The metaverse will allow you to interact with other participants through personalized avatars: make new friends, chat, networking, walk through the different spaces of this virtual world, attend the 36 talks of our speakers and workshops that will be organized, a free zone with surprise content.
We conceive these other worlds not as single destinations to which everyone goes by default, but as a complex network consisting of browsers, indexes and portals. One constantly buzzing with activity, where our community can go whenever you want, and do whatever you want.
One significant feature of the metaverse is its interoperability. That is, my ability to travel across it, hopping frictionlessly from portal to portal.
Welcome to the OFFF metaverse, alternate digital realities where people work, play, and socialize. You can call it the metaverse, the mirror world, the Magicverse, the Spatial internet, or Live Maps, but one thing is for certain, it’s coming and it’s a big deal.”

Airo Car by Heatherwick Studio |
London-based Heatherwick Studio has unveiled its concept for the Airo electric car for IM Motors that will "vacuum up pollutants from other cars".
Named Airo, the electric car will be fitted with a HEPA – high-efficiency particulate air – filtering system that will actively clean pollution. It will have both autonomous and driver-controlled modes.
“Airo isn’t simply another electric car that doesn’t pollute the air. Instead, using the latest HEPA-filter technology, it goes further by also vacuuming up pollutants from other cars as it drives along.”
The car has been designed with a flexible interior with rotating seats so that it can be reconfigured into a "multi-functional room".
With the seats facing each other a four-leaf table can be unfolded to create a dining space or a screen extended to watch films or play games.
View fullsize
The car's interior can also be turned into a bedroom as the contoured seats fully recline to create a double bed
The car, which is set to go into production in 2023, was designed for IM Motors – a car brand created by Chinese car company SAIC Motor, online retailer Alibaba Group and the Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Group.

Designcollector: What inspired the work in your first NFT drop?
Schoony: For the first drop with SuperRare I thought I would go back to one of my early works. Where The War Things Are is a variation on my Boy Soldier that has been a motif that has stuck with my work over the years and been very symbolic. Where the War Things Are is a throwback to my time spent in Melbourne, Australia where I was working on the film Where the Wild Things Are. I thought I would celebrate my first drop on SuperRare by recreating the piece digitally.

Rukmunal Hakim Illustrations |
Rukmunal Hakim (b.1983) is a self-taught artist and illustrator based in South Tangerang, Indonesia. he takes inspirations from all living, natural creatures, and personal anecdotes in his monochromatic visual artwork.
Being born with colour blind condition this does not stop him to keep creating and experimenting with artworks using color, both digital and traditional
His works have been exhibited in Jakarta, Bandung, Japan, Scotland, and the Netherlands, among others.

"The life of a person who goes up and down, is uncertain" is another meaning of "Yang Rebah Bangun, Karena Terinjak". Summarizes the many things that have happened during my nearly eleven years as a self-taught artist. The collection of visual works here are stories of how I see the path of my journey as an artist who has never been on a flat and straight path. It is boring to hear about someone's struggles when they become an artist, such as the love and heartbreak pop songs that are repeated over and over again. This is also a question for myself, until when to make works that are always about self-internalization? How about a work in the form of social commentary? Does the work I create have a place and function for society? Or is it just an artist's creative masturbation?
These questions are part of my work journey. Intertwined with the inability to identify self-image, low self-esteem, to the urge to commit suicide. An extreme ride like a roller coaster. These ten works summarize the journey, as a visual record for me, a reminder that so far, the road has not been easy. Do I keep walking, taking a break, or stop?
The online solo exhibition showed 10 digital artworks that I created from 2019-2021. This collection is also special because apart from digital working techniques, these 10 artworks are also a collection of my works with color. A big step for me as an artist, after years of getting used to black-and -white and monochromatic color schemes. This solo exhibition is held on my personal website : www.rukmunalhakim.com

The Fungible by Pak - Sotheby's x Nifty Gateway |
Pak
The Fungible by Pak
The history is made at night. Mighty digital artist Pak has completed an auction organised by Sotheby’s and Nifty Gateway and paved a path to the history of NFT Art on April 14th 2021.
Pak is an omniscient designer/developer/wizard, one of the leads of the design scene as the founder of Undream and one of the prominent social media figures as the creator of Archillect, the synthetic curator. Pak is currently at uncharted space experimenting with new forms of creation and communication, discovering, learning and teaching along the journey.
“In the Sotheby’s sale, top prices were paid for Pak works that showcased a level of market savvy and gamelike complexity that would be impossible with a canvas or sculpture in real life. “The Switch,” which sold to California cryptocurrency investor Damian Medina for $1.4 million, is a digital image of a rotating, black-and-white geometric shape.” text via WSJ
“Another work, “The Pixel,” sold for $1.4 million to artist Eric Young and elicited bids from many top NFT art collectors in part because its medium-gray monochrome represents a single pixel, the building block of digital imagery.”
The auction for the open edition “Cube” was set up in a way of mathematical game explained neatly in this tweet and hardly understandable for us but at the end it went as 23151 sold editions of a single Cube. Obtaining a sequence of single Cubes made collectors to receive an NFT of 5, 10, 20, 100, 500 and 1000x1000 cubes based on how many cubes they own. This action burst a second sale in the form of pyramid. The top secondary market buyers will get other unique NFTs. This creates buying pressure in the secondary market, further adding value to single cubes.
Unlike the debut of Beeple’s The First 5000 days NFT on Christies', Pak created a brain puzzle for those who a seriously familiar with math and cryptocurrencies leaving others watching this Game agape.

Juun.J Flagship Store by WGNB Korea |
Seoul-based architects WGNB shares their latest design project created for Juun.J flagship store. Under the slogan “See the same thing but think differently”, WGNB pursues creating a new perspective through connecting the various inspirations of our daily lives with the spatial design. With the new perspective and flexible thoughts, WGNB redefines the boundaries between design that ranges from architecture, furniture to product design. Based on this creative goal, we seek to create a new sense of experience by collaborating with various genres of art.
Juun.J
by WGNB
It’s the first flagship store of the fashion brand of Juun.J. It’s divided into two floors; the first floor comprising cafe and women’s wear, while the second floor men’s wear. We used natural elements such as light and shadow in order to express darkness within space using black – identity color of Juun.J brand. The shape of the architecture was initiated from geometry that is the basic form in all designs. Juun.J’s flagship store surely has a certain form but in the shape like a shadow without exact shape, which is similar to Juun.J as it invites endless curiosity to people.
View fullsize
We built our first flagship store where customers are able to experience at once all lines of not only men’s and women’s wear collections but of limited collaboration products at Dosan Park, Sinsa-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
View fullsize
The flagship store is composed of the first and second floors with the total size of 396m^2. The first floor is arranged centred on women’s line and collaboration products, while the second floor displays men’s products. We at Juun..J provide differentiated brand experience to customers by arranging a garden as well as the best specialty coffee brand FELT COFFEE on the first floor so that they can experience a diverse range of brands at the same space.
View fullsize
“Black is a color symbolic of Juun.J and the most beautiful shadow out of the shapeless existences is also black.“
If we look at the traditional house structure in the East, large roof files are put above the house basically and the whole structure is absorbed into within the deep and wide shade generated by the awning. Deep darkness below the awning is shadow as well as black within the space.
In an attempt to turn black into space, we organised space by either hanging plenty of objet or separating them and generating shadows. All spaces except white part for women’s wear on the first floor are composed of varied densities of darkness. While the first floor has contrasts with some white part, clothes here are also hung in darkness. The space of cafe generates various darknesses due to natural light dramatically penetrating from the ceiling. And eaves spreading forward work as an awning and make visitors feel natural light coming as a result of reflection on the garden. They can see the garden from within the space and find another shadow as a tree is floating in the garden.
The shape of the architecture is composed of circle, quadrangle and triangle, basic forms in all designs and the architecture is designed with the concept of dark matters of the universe. Especially, the garden-shaped circle, which is a space drawing natural light, plays an important role in making this dark matter a striking contrast.
This architecture and space started very much from the Orienal way of thinking, and the structure of space and formative approach were complete based on the Western style. We expressed achromatic color of black as darkness within the space instead of a simple painting and, as far as the used materials are concerned, we diversely applied materials that black has intrinsically instead of painting them in black.

Lee Madgwick Art |
Lee Madgwick’s mysterious and emotive paintings depict scenes of abandonment, seclusion and dereliction. Both his urban and rural pictures portray parts of the modern British landscape that are often overlooked by many (with occasional sprinklings of the surreal). With an undercurrent of mischievous menace throughout, the subject matter is at once thrown into question. Who inhabits these places? What lives do they lead? What is happening or about to happen? “I hope to achieve a sense of drama in my work. Presenting a familiar image yet placing it in an intimate and moody setting. A narrative is very important – but intentionally never fully explained. I like to leave it for the viewer to come up with their own interpretation.”
Lee paints on canvas in oils and acrylics. A play of light is used to generate an abundance of seemingly inexplicable moods to contrast with a brooding sky. Lee has exhibited throughout the UK including London and Edinburgh as well as Dublin, Amsterdam, Rome, Milan, Stockholm, Madrid, Singapore and New York.

Surreal Infraland™ by Paolo Pettigiani |
Photographer and art director Paolo Pettigiani combines graphic design and photography playing with colours, shapes and contrasts.
Infraland™ is a graphic and visual exploration of nature that aims to highlight the beauty that surrounds us and that is too often forgotten. For this project I used digital Infrared photography. This technique enables the full sensitivity of the camera’s sensor, making it sensitive to UV, visible, and IR light.
Elements with chlorophyll, such as grass, leaves and trees, strongly reflect IR light on the invisible wavelength.

“Project 365 is a year-long project I started in April 2020 during the pandemic to rediscover myself and do what I like without restrictions. I must admit the idea of making a new image every day is indeed very ambitious. The shoots are not always planned; there are days that I need to improvise within a short time. The challenge of Project 365 is pushing my boundaries under different circumstances and making the fullest out of everything I have. I wasn’t sure if I could manage to deliver as I wish daily.”
