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.
With great pleasure FreeStyle Reloaded introduce you a new Italian Eco-Artist, Paolo Lo Giudice: “Who makes intellectual work usually, in his free time, needs a manual jobs to get off from a sedentary lifestyle. I started 10 years ago looking at the pieces of broken moto bikes from my sons, combined that with a passion for modern and contemporary art. Now I use plastic, wood, leather and metal who offers more possibilities of composition and it’s very challenge!”
“I wondered if when an object ceases its original function, automatically becomes a waste. I think that the end of the objects depends on the person who takes care of them. Personally I can recover and reuse things trying to give them a new aesthetic dimension thus prolonging their life cycle”.
In 2004 Paolo started with his first exibithion to bring his unique creations all around Italy and never stopped! To find out more have a look at FreeStyle Reloaded’s site or to Paolo Lo Giudice’s gallery.
See you soon,

That’s the creative and fun ideas for recycling by Ilaria Chiani aka “Ilaria Chiani Cactus” and she told me “I used to make my cactus with all stuff even junk I can get around: denim, food packaging, old rain covers, vintage textile, even P&P box/bags! The internal structure is on wood, so that the cactus can’t “sag”. Then I create the foam padding and wadding. They are entirely handmade and I need 1 to 4 days to make them. The largest is two feet, the yellow one in the picture below.”
She is always very active within Arts exhibitions like “Mamastore” in Thiene, “Orange Blue” in Thiene, “ Spazio Nadir” in Vicenza, RIARTECO in Firenze. Find out more about her look at Ilaria Chiani Cactus’s blog.

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

Robert Bradford, an english artist born in London, began in 2004 experimenting with a series of sculptures which utilise plastic toys as their main modelling material, and which have now attracted consistent international attention. After trials with two unsatisfactory construction methods, he began screwing the toys into wooden armatures, which proved both strong and highly adaptable as a method.
“One day about four years ago out in the studio I was looking into my childrens box of outgrown / discarded toys which happened to be stored in the same building and responded to the random collection of colours shapes and forms they made. I figured that if I could find a way of putting them together to constitute a larger form they would have great potential as larger scale sculpture.”
“Some people of course just say they are rubbish which of course is perfectly true! Some find the sculptures beautiful/ curious/ scary/ weird/ emotional and etc. (which considering all they are really are , is bits of what is usually seen as trash) is great.”
He has exhibited widely and has work in public and private collections in England and America.

Dear everyone, my name is Cristina Savi, Editor at Verbania News.
It’s my pleasure to inform you that since today Refashinoso will also become Partner of FreeStyle Re-loaded, the new editorial channel of Verbania News it means that we will start to share information and tips about Fashion and Art Recycling.
Infact FreeStyle Re-loaded will face the issue of reuse and recycling everyday life things with imagination, innovation & creativity.
The first appointment is with “Ginko” project:
Clara Derossi & Paola Camana, the two creators, in their free time make unique hanbags and purses reusing packaging of coffee and biscuits: hundreds of little cuttings pieces, to be joined and sewing for a unique result.
After several trials with different types of paper – waste paper, newspaper & magazines – Carla and Paola finally turned towards coffee packaging in order to guarantee the impermeability and resistance. They can also get them from “Bar & Clubs”. Imagine that for a small pouch, 25 x 12cm, they need to cut 360 pieces, it means a total area of about 2 square metres, which are roughly 18-kilogram bags of coffee. It also means at least 10 hours of hard work! That’s a great job, guys.
Have a look at this amazing bags. To download the catalogue have a look at FreeStyle Re-loaded’s blog.
Thanks,
Cristina.
