5,000 year old V-neck shirt confirmed as world's oldest garment

What you see here is the world's oldest-known woven garment still in existence. It's 5,000 years old, and was found by archeologists in an ancient Egyptian tomb in 1913. The Tarkhan Dress, as it has been dubbed, is currently on display at London's Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology. Researchers believe that a teenager or a slender woman wore it.

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 ]
