These helmets look just like shaved heads


Dubai-based artist Jyo John Mulloor has been experimenting with different ways to create comfortable motorcycle headgear, and has come up with a set of four hyper-realistic helmet designs that look like shaved human heads.

The Kerala-born digital designer explains on his website: "Project: HumanHelmet is an outcome of my extreme dislike to wearing a thick, clunky piece of metal that's simply not as comfortable as wearing a bandanna, cap or nothing at all."




I am particularly fond of the helmet with attached goggles but I'd like to see how it looks on a real head. These protective gear are just Photoshop creations, but according Mulloor, "some manufactures have already shown interest in launching a line of helmets under this design umbrella."

Enigmatic Shapes and Psychedelic Patterns

To say that I love Sanagi 's work is an understatement. Looking at her art feels sort of therapeutic, and I find her drawings refreshingly intricate. They're trippy, psychedelic, and resemble something that you might see under a microscope. Not much is Googleable about Sanagi, but that's fine. There aren't many artists these days that still pull off the whole mysterious vibe, so I commend her for that. By the way... they're all hand-drawn with pen and ink.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

James DeRosso's ceramic monsters

I really like these whimsical ceramic creatures by James DeRosso. Yes, they have bulging eyes and toothy grins, but they're not scary at all. The Portland-based artist started making cute monsters while he was a student to jokingly create gargoyle-like guardians for the kiln. After other students kept taking his quirky little figures, he realized there was a market for them. "I'm enjoying the whole monster making niche," James says. "It's amazingly gratifying to be doing ceramics full time and especially to be a teacher introducing kids to the joy of clay."
