  6. 15 Sculptures You (probably) Didn’t Know Existed

    A fork in a lake. A shark in a roof. A portrait hidden inside fifty steel columns. These sixteen sculptures use cliffs, shadows, water, buildings, light, and even the viewer’s position as part of the work. Some are permanent landmarks; others travel or were created as temporary installations. 🎶 “Mélodie oubliée” — By Luo Li Rong In this workshop photo, Luo Li Rong uses a torch on the bronze surface of Mélodie oubliée. The finished work is 205 cm tall and weighs 250 kg, […]

  10. A quotation from George Orwell

    Artists don’t so much object to aesthetic discipline. Architects will design theatres or churches equally readily, writers will switch from the three-volume novel to the one-volume, or from the play to the film, according to the demand. But the point is that this is a political age. A writer inevitably writes — and less directly this applies to all the arts — about contemporary events, and his impulse is to tell what he believes to be the truth. But no government, no big organization, will pay for the truth. To take a crude example: can you imagine the British Government commissioning E. M. Forster to write A Passage to India? He could only write it because he was not dependent on State aid.

    George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
    Essay (1944-10-13), “As I Please” column, Tribune Newspaper

  11. Falling for It (10 Photos)

    A flat wall is just a flat wall, until an artist decides to play a trick on your eyes. Suddenly, a solid brick corner turns into a massive tiger ready to pounce. A plain pavement opens up into a glowing pit. Across cities from Patras to Mons, creators are bending perspective and turning everyday architecture into giant optical illusions. You walk past what you think is a normal building, only to realize a T-Rex is crashing through the plaster. These aren't just paintings. They are […]

  25. A Sunlit Afternoon on the Wall

    This is me standing on the old walls of Cork where I took this photo in Bishop Lucey Park yesterday afternoon. The sun had already started to head to the horizon and it wasn’t even 3pm, but it did light up the mural on the wall and placed the ground in front of me in shadow.

    For many in Ireland, November is firmly in the winter months of the year. It seems to be a traditional Irish/Celtic thing because Met Éireann uses meteorological seasons which classify September, October and November as autumn.
