Jens Reinert Negative Architecture

"The work of the German educated graphic designer Jens Reinert offers some new perspectives on our architectural surroundings. Instead of complete buildings Reinert models their fragments or visualises the volumes of subterranean spaces – it seems he builds “negatives” of architecture we ususally only perceive from the inside..."

Leptocephalus Is An Eel Larva

This large size leptocephalus must be a species of Muraenidae (moray eels), and probably the larva of a long thin ribbon eel, which is metamorphosing, not feeding, and is entering shallow water to finish metamorphosis into a young eel. Leptocephali are the unusual transparent larvae of eels and their close relatives. Because they are transparent they are so hard to spot and are hardly ever sighted.....awesome!

oh.. and whilst we are on the topic of worm-like creatures in the sea...here is a close-up of the head of one of those worms that hangs out on the sea bed around those hydrothermal vents. Pretty lil thang!

Katsuyo Aoki Skulls

According to the artist: "Currently, I use ceramics as my material in my method of expression, incorporating various decorative styles, patterns, and symbolic forms as my principal axis in creating my works.

The decorative styles and forms I allude to and incorporate in my works each contain a story based on historical backgrounds and ideas, myths, and allegories.　Their existence in the present age makes us feel many things,; adoration, some sort of romantic emotions, a sense of unfruitfulness and languor from their excessiveness and vulgarity.

And on the other hand, they make us feel tranquility and awe that can almost be described as religious, as well as an image as an object of worship.

By citing such images, I feel I am able to express an - atmosphere- that is a part of the complex world in this age.

In fact, the several decorative styles and forms I cite simultaneously hold divine and vulgar meaning in the present age, having an irrational quality that contradict each other, which I feel express an important aspect in the contemporary age in which we live.

Also, the technique of ceramics has a tradition that has been a part of the history of decoration over a long time, and I feel the delicateness and fragile tension of the substantial material well express my concept."

Andrzej Dragan Update

I first posted about Andrzej Dragan a couple years back when I was looking for Photoshop effect plug-ins and found one called the Dragan Effect. He became known for using a special type of saturation, colour and lighting in his works and this has helped him to stand out as a photographer and continue to make really unique photos....
