Typoe

I wasn't able to find a lot of information about Typoe apart from a flickr page, but his piece, Confetti Death, is pretty damn awesome.

Houston

There is absolutely no information about this artist, other than their name might be Houston (thanks to the clever URL and his Vimeo username. I even checked the source code of the site, and found all the images labeled with HOUSTON). Hmmm. It's a mystery to me.

That doesn't make me like these sculptures, installations and photographs any less.

Maybe it makes me like it more?

Motohiko Odani

Motohiko Odani is a celebrated Japanese sculptor who makes fantastically bizarre and beautiful sculptures.

I love it; otherworldly but still distinctly Japanese.

He currently has a solo show at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo called Phantom Limb. I'd be amazing to see it in person.

Pablo Reinoso

We're redoing the upstairs studio in our house and toying with the idea of a central workspace with benches.

I started a meandering internet search for benches and ended up floored by the work of Pablo Reinoso, who has made some crazy awesome benches in his time.

Check out his site because he makes a lot more than benches. Although there's a fair amount of furniture and functional items, he also created a lot of beautiful installations.

Helmut Smits

Helmut Smits is a clever guy. He's all about ideas and his work just makes you smile. He's so full of ideas, in fact, that there's a section of his site dedicated to rough ideas for projects that he just hasn't got around to yet (and maybe never will).

It's often not only the image itself, but also the title or description of materials that transforms what you're looking at.

Festival Cinq Saisons 2010

Festival Cinq Saisons (Five Seasons Festival) takes place in the French town of Chaudfontaine. I don't know much more about it because I don't speak French. Sorry.

But the work on display is very, very cool.

Fred Eerdekens

Fred Eerdekens creates sculptures that may not look particularly special at first glance. Once properly lit, however, they become almost magical.
