Monochrome_anachron-1

That’s the amazing idea by Michael Johansson: to get everything, regular and irregular, to turn into regularly ArtWorks. A kind of Tetris Art.

“I am intrigued by irregularities in daily life. Not those that appear when something extraordinary occurs, but those that are created by an exaggerated form of regularity. Colours or patterns from two separate objects or environments concur, like when two people pass each other dressed in the exact same outfit. Or when you are switching channels on your TV and realize that the same actor is playing two different roles on two different channels at the same time. Or that one day the parking lot contained only red cars” he writes.

“These irregularities, these coincidences, are another focus of my artwork.” And now have at Michael Johansson’s site to find out all his amazing ideas.

There’s nothing better than lots of colour splashes on your dress to put you in a good mood!

Fernando Brizio Fernando Brizio

Fernando Brizio is a talented product designer from Portugal, responsible for some of the most creative recycled art and fashion.
Like this Felt-tip Pens Dress: by meticulously inserting coloured felt-tip pens, nib down, into a white dress fitted with little pockets, the ink is bleeds into the fabric in a sequence of splodges. The idea behind the dress is that the owner slips the pens into the pockets herself just before entering the party or whatever she’s attending and bursting into messy bloom. As you can see the felt tip pens are inserted in the small pockets of the dress. Within an hour – to one and a half hours the colored ink bleeds into the fabric and creates a one-off design for each occasion. The owner can then clean the dress and color it in a different way for each time they wear it.
Watch this video by Fernando explaining how it’s done:
