These refrigerators are unique interpretations of Sicilian folklore


If you're tired of your plain old fridge, you may want to check out these one-of-a-kind refrigerators from Dolce & Gabbana. The Milan-based fashion company recently teamed up with Italian appliances brand Smeg to create a special series of refrigerators, all of which are hand-painted and signed by respected Sicilian artists. 

"Every piece is unique, but they all tell a story consistent with our brand identity," says Domenico Dolce. "They might be kitchen appliances, but there's something that is immediately identifiable as Dolce & Gabbana, from the Sicilian barrows to the Trinacria symbol to the marionettes to the Italian lemons and fruits."

Only 100 fridges have been produced, and each unit costs a whopping $34,000.

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.

Thai artist paints on mosquito nets

I find them quite intriguing, these ghostly portraits that Uttaporn Nimmalaikaew paints on mosquito nets. His creations look like a hologram, changing form depending on where the viewer stands. Overall, they're gloomy, haunting, and endlessly fascinating. I could stare at them for ages. [h/t: Colossal ]
