I found these great Tetris furniture sculptures by Michael Johanssons and it made look at other things that were inspired by the Tetris game. There are some pretty creative people out there. Which one is your favourite?

I have no idea if this artist got their inspiration from Australian Native gumnuts but that is the first thing I thought of when I saw this street sculpture in Melbourne. I wish I could ask him/her but there was no plaque to say who the artist was – if anyone knows who it is please post details.
You cant tell in this pic but the sticks have a beautiful movement to them them the wind blows, adding to its organic inspiration.

I really don’t need to say much more than…….WOW!!!!!!!!!!!
Art for interiors and fashion are all about pushing the envelope and pushing the boundaries of what you can get your materials to do. This fashion shoot by Josh Olins of Magdalena Frackowiak for Dazed & Confused’s February 2010 edition shows that these dresses aren’t created for their practical use but to stimulate excitement and buzz. Which it certainly does!

I first discovered the sheer brilliance of Sand Sculpture on a holiday in Byron Bay. It was like busking on sand, you put a coin in if you liked their work. Now it is held all over the world in organised events with entry fees and competitions. I’m fascinatied at their skill, patience and gypsy lifestyle as most artist travel the world living by the sand and sea culture for their art. Pretty nice lifestyle.
