In his youth, French artist Jaybo ran away from his house in southern France, settling in Berlin-Kreuzberg at the beginning of the 1980’s. When he founded the streetwear label Irie Daily and the cultural magazine Style at the beginning of the 1990’s, his influence on Berlin’s youth culture and fashion scene could be clearly seen. Even today, urban subculture is the driving force behind his artistic activities. Speaking of Jaybo’s incredible artwork, it seems to be tough to classify him […]

Toy life or bugs story?

Insect Toys Sang Won Sung, born in Seoul, Korea 1965. Lives and works in Sao Paulo – Brazil. Sung creates these amazingly awkward but awesome art toys. They have a very distinctive style, not completely weird, with a very cool edge. I love that he uses doll’s arms as insect legs, and many other alternative objects! Sang has done many exhibitions, and he is collecting a lot of cool awards, well done. Keep it up If all mankind were to disappear, the […]

Pughatory by Madame Peripetie

09/22/2011 by chicquero

British photographer Madame Peripetie really knows how to think outside the box!

The name of this series is Pughatory and I think it gives you the chance to play with your mind in terms of interpretations. Wow, if this is how she imagines “purgatory” we […]
