Designer creates outfits out of human hair

These garments, made from frizzy human hair, are an absolute wonder to look at. But would you wear them? The innovative fashion line is the brainchild of French designer Alix Bizet, who collected hair from hairdressers to create jackets and hats.

"Human hair is shaped to be a social indicator between individuals to communicate their status and cultural affiliations," Alix describes on her website. "Although hair's original state is characterized by richly diverse texture and colors, our idea of hair has been steadily standardized over the years by the cosmetics industry, media, and social conventions, making it akin to a uniform." Check out some of her creations below.

Sayaka Ganz creates amazing art menagerie from discarded plastics

I could never get enough of Sayaka Ganz . The Japanese-born artist saves the planet from plastic, at the same time creates brilliant animal sculptures. Raised under the Japanese philosophy of Shintoism, she hopes to bring greater awareness to the condition of our environment through her art. When creating sculptures, Sayaka organizes the reclaimed plastic objects into color groups, constructs a wire frame, and then carefully attaches the fragments of waste until she creates the shape she has envisioned. Her work has been exhibited in many places around the globe, among them Parma, Tokyo, Denver, New York, and San Francisco to name a few. Sayaka's Reclaimed Creations is currently on view at the Asian Arts & Culture Center at Towson University in Maryland. She regularly posts on Facebook, so be sure to like and follow her page for updates.

Kulay Sa Tubig

Image credit: Manila Bulletin Watercolor is not easy to use. It's unpredictable and hard to control. Unlike opaque paints, a slight change in the water-to-pigment ratio or the wetness of the paper can alter the outcome. But, with a lot of practice, plenty of patience, and a little bit of luck, you can create something truly beautiful. Anyway, here are some of the entries from the 37th Kulay Sa Tubig National Watercolor Competition, which was held recently at Estancia Mall in Pasig. The exhibit runs until October 27, 2025.
