This is the question Rachel Kilback explores in her mixed-media pieces using found animal remains, garbage and other items she finds in the wilds of British Columbia.

Ben Winfield’s wooden characters are reminiscent of vinyl collectibles that many of us know and love. These, however, are made from wood and painted with automobile paint. I’d happily choose one of these over a vinyl toy any day. Read more

What is it about typically tiny things made into giant large scale sculptures that makes it so appealing? Swedish sculptor, Claes Oldenburg does just that by replicating everyday objects into huge, fun, public art installations. At the Tate Modern, a mammoth sized 3-way plug hangs above an exhibition space. And in the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, Oldenburg’s delectable Spoonbridge and Cherry artwork. Read more

Vancouver-based artist Brian Jungen uses whole manufactured items, not just materials taken from them, to construct sculptural pieces that invert and extend ideas of form and function and transcend their components to comment on pop culture, waste, industrialisation, and spirituality. Read more

Some people might compare Laurel Roth’s work mainly dealing with high-end materials and animal bones to Damien Hirst’s, but she has much more reverence for the craft and skill required to use the crystal, gold leaf, walnut, industrial plastic, and even fake fingernails and eyelashes. Her work is also much more directly about man’s relationship with nature than it is about the pop appropriation of such themes. Read more

Leah Rosenberg’s work is all about paint as sculpture, many of her 3D pieces consisting of thick layers of acrylic folded together into book-like objects, stacks, or heavily clinging to canvases.

Ryan Johnson’s pieces made from found and repurposed materials are very much rooted in traditional figurative sculpture, but he has abstracted the forms, making his work have a weird gestural quality. Read more

It turns out that the Internet was invented for cute animals as much as it was for porn. All these four-legged nobodies suddenly have our attention, and all they have to do is sneeze or fall asleep or act like they’re talking for us to fawn all over them. Heeding the growing chorus of people calling for these furry hacks to be cut back down to size, Fuck You Penguin aims to keep the egos of goats, puffins, moose, and pretty much every adorable creature on earth in check.

Three piece, cLOUDDEAD, who formed in Cincinnati at the tail-end of the last millenium, fuse traditional hip hop beats with indie, electronica and psy-rock overtones. Doesone and Why?’s layered, poetic vocals cover the personal, political and social elements of their lives; and, above all, their flatout rejection of traditional musical boundaries makes them a quirky and unique act.

For an industry that spends so much time fratenising with musicians, few designers ever admit to being primarily influenced by the music industry itself. Electronic Poet are an exception. Read more
