'SexLife' by Stefan Georgiou

Having a baby is a beautiful, life-changing experience. But no matter how you love your precious tot, caring for an infant can be a serious obstacle to hooking up. This is the focus of Stefan Georgiou's film SexLife, which was originally written by Kefi Chadwick as a theatrical piece for the Edinburgh Festival.

The 15-minute short centers on Mia (Jemima Rooper) and Dan (Dylan Edwards), a young London couple who haven't had sex since before the birth of their son. In an attempt to get his partner into bed, Dan dresses as Dr. Frank-N-Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It's hilarious, emotional, and charming in its honesty. Check it out below.

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.

What if directors actually looked like the characters in their films?

One of the things I like about the internet is the fact that it provides an endless showcase for the most incredible corners of human creativity. Like, for example, these quirky wooden sculptures by Seattle-based artist Mike Leavitt . For his latest series, King Cuts , Mike transforms some of the most renowned filmmakers into satirical sculptures. They're on view at the Jonathan Levine Gallery in New York until June 11, consists of 16 new hand-carved sculptures of directors like Tim Burton, Alfred Hitchcock, Steven Spielberg and Quentin Tarantino. The artist fused Burton with three of the filmmaker's works; Batman , Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands , while Hitchcock is transformed into one of his own attacking birds. Watch the making of the Tarantino sculpture below. You can also follow Mike on Instagram to see his work in progress.
