Anna The Red was born in Japan and now lives in New York. She makes art you can eat. Her Bento boxes feature characters from Dr Suess, Studio Ghibli and Maurice Sendak. I’m not sure whether I want to eat them, or leave them on the mantelpiece to look at until the ants claim them. Read more

Love Kills Demons is 12 short films by New York-based film-maker, Jim Helton. Over the course of a year, Helton documented New York artist Chris Rubino while he searched for a new direction in his work. In the process we see screen-printing, drawing, painting, wandering, as well as a peak inside the workings of a studio and an artist’s process.

This show just finished and was a fantastic sight. Nate Lowman made these shaped canvases of air fresheners, which where just smaller than life size. It kind of felt as thought the place smelt of America. The show was at Gavin Brown’s Enterprise in New York.

New York-based, Shaun Kasperbauer, is the genius behind the Bubble Chandelier. Inspired by the shape of soap bubbles, it was constructed from two-litre plastic bottles. Now, that’s a lot of soft drink! Read more

Street artist Gaia has been so prolific here in Baltimore that I initially thought he was from here. Not so. The New York-born wheat-paster is quietly plastering the entire world with his stunning humanimals and stern-looking Native Americans. Read more

Sarah Rosado’s passion for art seeps through her comedic cartoons. Her beautiful pin-up illustrations are a personal favourite.

Turkish-born, New York-based artist Deniz Ozuygur’s hilarious pieces tell sophisticated jokes that also, via crude, distorted, and disembodied forms, tap into a more innocent and tactile relationship we had with our bodies in grade school. Her Self High Five Machine is hysterical, as is her Alterations series, in which she messes with common kids’ items — Gummi Worms, Funyuns, a gum eraser — before repackaging them and returning them to the manufacturer.

I learned of the work of New York artist Katherine Mangiardi from the Merchant’s House Museum of all places. So appropriate. Mangiardi’s paintings of lace are unbelievably haunting, like the delicate, filmy fabric of a ghost, or like the painfully decaying lace of an antique dress. I also found her fabric installations at various historic museums around the East Coast rather beautiful. I find the idea of being able to set up an installation in a historic house pretty intriguing. Read more

New York-artist Morgan Croney has an exhibition of new works opening at Brooklyn’s HQ Gallery on April 11 ‘which takes Sol LeWitt’s famous dictum — Irrational thoughts should be followed absolutely and logically — quite seriously’. Read more

I love the work of New York artist and sculptor, D.E. Cooper. Of his latest series he says: ‘I’m exploring themes of faith and inner strength. Of course, the road to such findings are never easily traveled and without obstacles. Along the way the characters within my paintings all experience feelings of doubt, anxiety, weakness and hopelessness’. Read more

The work of New York-based artist, Dawn Ng, is amazing. Of her illustrations, she says: ‘I’ve always had an obsession with words. I like how you can easily take sentences apart and play musical chairs with different words and their meaning. Each illustration in this New Yorker series begins from holding a word or group of words on a page hostage then constructing imaginary situations, tensions, characters from them. It’s also a bit of a piss-take on the New Yorker’s literary up-their-royal-ass-ness because what I am doing is essentially re-telling their stories with images using a black sharpie’.

Brooklyn-based artist and designer Brian LaRossa takes the hand-drawn aesthetic into the digital realm with his colorful glowing compositions ‘shaped through a process of reconfiguration’. Read more
A little something for your inner child. Beards, arachnid looking things, giants and more (yes, there can be more). David Litchfield, UK illustrator. More, please.
Damn, ten years of playing guitar in loud rock bands, and not once did we have a slamming moshpit like this. Banging heads is so, so fun.
Who says the Swedes have got a monopoly on seasonal ice hotels? This one in Kemi, northern Finland, is the world’s largest snow castle, standing seventeen metres high and with walls that are 1,100 metres long. It has restaurants, an art gallery, a hotel and a chapel. In fact, since opening in the early 1990s, it’s been quite a hit for tourists to get married at the snow chapel. Hmmm, now that would be a frosty start to any marriage. Read more
Epsilon is a cool game inspired by the activation of the real-life particle accelerator, the LHC, in the CERN lab in Switzerland. Read more
I don’t know a lot about The Sugars but I like what they do. Their sound is quite rockabilly but quite modern — like White Stripes. They put out a couple of indie singles and I’d really like to find some time to work with them.
No matter what’s going on with your outfit, chances are, if you’ve got good shoes on, you’re okay. Keep Company shoes are only going from strength to strength, bringing out more and shoes apparel that are probably going to ruin my savings account. Read more

Pitched as ‘Ulterior Motives in Contemporary Art’, Disorder Disorder is running until November 14 at Penrith Regional Gallery.
