Wonderfully crafted and intricate sculptures, for want of a better word, are the product of Mike Rea. I love this piece, titled "A prosthetic Suit For Stephen Hawkin w/ Japanese Steel" from 2007, which is massive and actually accommodates a real size human. His website is a bit small and faffy, but well worth a look around. I'm totally in awe of his work.
For his Halloween costume last year, Eric Testroete used a bunch of programs like 3DS Max, Photoshop and Pepakura to make a wire-frame look version of his own head, inspired by the big-head mode from video games. Freaky, but totally excellent.
Max Abadianhas worked with the likes of Lady Gaga & Dita Von Teese (and a bunch more on top of that) and has just shot Doutzen Kroes (Dow-tzen Crew-s) in NYC for the cover of Canadian fashion mag Flare. The shots are a messed up, mixed up version of classic Brigitte Bardot style images.
I've been keeping an eye on Deth P. Sun's work for a while now, so it's about time it got a post. If you're in San Francisco between now and 9th September drop by the current exhibition at Double Punch.
The new spot by Ed Edwards & Dave Masterman, creative directors at CHI&Partners,for Drench kinda freaks me out a bit. But I like it. Directed by Ulf Johansson through production company Smith & Jones with post at MPC.
