The Whiteboard

chris burden

Came across this documentary directed by Henry Joost & Ariel Schulmanon on artist Chris Burden and a kinetic sculpture that has taken him four years to build. This was filmed before the piece was moved to the Los Angeles Country Museum of Art (LACMA) where it is being reinstalled. We’re in love with every detail and only wished we could have witnessed this in motion.

yayoi kusama

I first encountered Yayoi Kusama‘s work at the Gagosian Gallery in New York, and immediately went a bit dotty for her. The Japanese-born artist, now in her eighties, has been producing artworks inspired by themes of personal obsession and cosmic wonder for decades. The Victoria Miro Gallery has a show of her works, running from Feb 9th to April 5, 2012. Looking forward to catching this exhibition in London.

next big thing

Thought this Samsung video, Next Big Thing, took the cult of Mac and put a smart little twist to it.

kata kata

Kata kata creates original textile products by using katazome and chusen. Inspired by things they see daily such as their pets, insects, plants, scenery…etc. The pattern looks so Japanese yet quite Western. I feel that each piece has its own very special story that explains the relationship between human and nature.
