The sculptures of Israeli ceramicist Ronit Baranga flirt with the boundary between desire and repulsion. Baranga sculpts delicate lips and sensual fingertips, planting these tools of seduction in places where we least expect to find them. Plates and bowls grow mouths ready to lick and kiss.

After Losing Mother To Brain Cancer, Artist Finds Peace In Surreal Photography
Kirsty Mitchell, a talented photographer based in the UK, creates mystical and dream-like surreal photographs that clearly communicate her intense, deep and personal connection to her artwork. When her mother died of brain cancer in 2008, photography became Mitchell’s only shelter from the pain of her loss. “Photography became my only escape when I could no longer talk about how I felt. It became an utter fantasy that blocked out the real world, and a place where I could return to my memories of her, far away from those hospitals walls,” she writes on her website. The influence of her loss and of her loving memories of her mother are readily apparent in her stunning images: “I found myself producing pieces that echoed the memories of her stories, and the belief in wonder I have always felt since a child.” Her background in fashion, costume design and photography provides her with a unique combination of talents that let her create such elaborate and beautiful images.
Anamorphic Sculptures
London-based artist Jonty Hurwitz creates ‘Anamorphic Sculptures’ which only reveal themselves once facing a reflective cylinder. Hurwitz took an engineering degree in Johannesburg where he discovered the fine line between art and science. He has lived in England for many years, working in the online industry though he quietly levitated into the world of art inspired by a need to make ‘something real’. Hurwitz discovered that he could use science as an artistic paintbrush. Each of his sculptures is a study on the physics of how we perceive space and is the stroke of over 1 billion calculations and algorithms. All images © Niina Keks, Otto Pierotto, Richard Ivey
Henryk Makarewicz & Wiktor Pental
In the 1950s, at the dawn of Polish socialism, Nowa Huta was thrown up near Cracow. This new Polish city was to be the manifestation of the socialist ideal. The residents were brought there from rural areas in order to work at the Lenin Steel Works, in an environment full of propaganda. Nowa Huta was the model for the birth of a New Pole.

70+ Stunning Abstract Photographs
For many, the concept of abstract art breeds images of what appear to the uneducated eye as random swathes of color and shape tossed into a scene to create something the artists deems representation of a specific entity such as an emotion or situation. When it comes to photography, similar notions can occur as we are confronted with confusing images containing unspecific subject matter. But do not be afraid, there is an awful lot to be learned from abstract photography. Practical Tips Abstract photography is based on the photographers eye. We're looking to capture something in a way that it would not usually be seen. Techniques Abstract photography is not about abiding by the rules. Approach it from angles, move your feet, bend your knees, look up, look down, look for patterns and correlating colors. My favorite aspects of shooting abstract shots is the moment when someone looks at an image and says "I really like it, but what is it?" Photo Inspiration Hippie Extrajection Dimitridf Bill Gracey
Artist Has Spent 7 Years Turning UK Forests Into Works Of Art
Ellie Davies, a talented multimedia artist in the UK, has spent seven years turning landscapes throughout the UK into beautiful and ghostly works of art. By introducing subtle (or sometimes not-so-subtle) elements to these landscapes, she turns them into meditations on our relationships with the landscapes we grow up and live in. “The forest represents the confluence of nature, culture, and human activity,” Davies writes on her website. “Forests are potent symbols in folklore, fairy tale and myth, places of enchantment and magic as well as of danger and mystery. In more recent history they have come to be associated with psychological states relating to the unconscious. The images are beautiful on their own, but each series also has its own intent on the artists’ part, which can be found on her website. More info: elliedavies.co.uk | Facebook | Twitter
