The elaborate salt labyrinths of Motoi Yamamoto


Motoi Yamamoto is a Japanese artist creating a name for himself by making intricate, large-scale installations using table salt. He recently finished two massive artworks inside an old castle: Floating Garden and Labyrinth. Both pieces are part of Univer'sel, an exhibition inside the walled medieval town of Aigues-Mortes in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of southern France. The event opened two weeks ago and also includes the salt sculptures of Jean-Pierre Formica. Their work will be on view until November 30.

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 ]
