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.

Not everything you see is true and here are a series of shadow illusions:

junk illusion 2

Tim Noble (born 1966) and Sue Webster (born 1967), who work as a team, are among the most celebrated of their generation of British artists; they are associated with the post-YBAgeneration of artists emerging after the Young British Artists of the 1990s.

They live and work together in Shoreditch, East London. Some of their notable pieces are made from piles of rubbish collected from London streets. A light is projected against the pile, and the shadow on the wall creates an entirely different image, typically one of the couple themselves: this is not at all apparent from looking directly at the pile.

The art of projection is emblematic of transformative art. The process of transformation, from discarded waste, scrap metal or even taxidermy creatures to a recognizable image, echoes the idea of ‘perceptual psychology’ a form of evaluation used for psychological patients. Noble and Webster are familiar with this process and how people evaluate abstract forms. Throughout their careers they have played with the idea of how humans perceive abstract images and define them with a meaning. The result is surprising and powerful as it redefines how abstract forms can transform into figurative ones.

You can find more information in Tim & Sue’s gallery site

pet_plastic_cosmetic_bottles

Gülnur Özdağlar since 2008 she has been producing cups, jewellery and home decoration accessories by recycling PET bottles: have a look at these amazing necklaces, earring, rings…

earings

She collects, heats, cuts, melts, drill holes into and reshapes PET bottles. She thinks that the real solution is “upcycling” rather than plain recycling. Her aim is to substitute with labour and artistic value the characteristics that the material loses during transformation, thus obtaining a product of higher value.

ring2ring

She believes that in the future there will be a plastic material that will not proceed from the cradle to the grave, but that will return to the cradle with no loss, thus giving rise to a new plastic material, that this will “determine the way shapes are created” and that the real problem will not be recycling, and not even upcycling, but “karmic compensation”. In other words she believes that there will be a better world.

Find out more about Gülnur Özdağlar.

Enjoy your green life.
