Coolest Toy Sculptures

10/25/2012 by chicquero

Amazing toy sculptures by the Australian artist Freya Jobbins. Provocative, funny and disturbing at the same time, Jobbins has re-purposed old children’s dolls in an unusual way, by assembling them into three dimensional portraits known as ‘dollfaces’. Freya uses the toys in a way to create caricature-like facial features of a somewhat grotesque nature. An impressive sculptural work, an artistic exploration of the relationship between consumerism and the culture of recycling, certainly bringing your attention to the point with the absurdist humanoid forms. “My work explores […]

Copywriter VS Art Director

06/18/2012 by chicquero

Great illustration project about the differences between copywriters and art directors by CW Versus AD. An art director oversees the art, photographs and drawn images, that appear in newspapers, magazines, ad campaigns and on book covers. An art director is usually the person who oversees the entire design department to coordinate what images will match up with what words. A copywriter hammers out the words that sell, promote, educate and inform. This means a great copywriter is gifted in the craft […]

Champagne meets art!

12/31/2011 by chicquero

WELCOME 2012! Zarb is a very interesting champagne brand from France. Zarb is French slang for bizarre (not surprised), and so are their incredible bottles. The design is very unconventional for  what you usually expect! The brand  was introduced by the Amsterdam-based communications agency THEY.  The bottles were turned into a creative medium by asking different artists to design their own bottle.  The artists were given complete freedom to create their fashionable bottle. Zarb is slowly expanding its distribution around the globe, I’m sure  they are going […]
