Taiwanese artist builds car from 25,000 discarded cell phones

Here's a mobile car. Literally. Taiwanese artist Lin Shih-Pao spent $30,000 and four years traveling the world, collecting thousands of old and discarded cell phones to complete this unique art installation.

The life-size F1 race car was built out of 25,000 mobies glued and nailed on a wooden frame. His goal is to spread environmental awareness, showing how a pile of junk can be recycled and transformed into a piece of modern art.

Irene Saputra's Colorful Stitched Pieces

Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

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.
