A talented Englishman by name Kyle Bean has repeatedly appeared on the pages of our site with his curious and diverse projects. The designer is a multi-user, he made an installation from an eggshell, and did paper art, and now, he is collecting a collection of insects. From matches, yes … True, so far this collection is not as large as the author would like, but it is not over yet, and work on the exhibits has just begun. To date, only a dragonfly, a butterfly and a large, probably May, beetle have come across the designer's "network".
Painstaking work that can only be compared with the separation of grains from chaff, but Kyle Bean does it with pleasure. A hobby, it is, always gives pleasure to those who are full of enthusiasm, inspiration and gush with all sorts of ideas. If in childhood you had to make at least houses out of matches, you will understand how time-consuming but exciting work that requires remarkable patience, diligence and perseverance.
You can get acquainted with the projects of Kyle Bean either at his personal exhibitions, which from time to time take place in the galleries of Brighton, or on his personal website.

"Precious" insects. Dew-covered insects in macro photography by David Chambon
We've probably never seen insects as beautiful as they are helpless as in David Chambon's macro photographs. The seasoned photo artist lives in the French town of Doubs in the Franche-Comté province, a five-minute drive from the national park, which is ideal for macro photography. There David Chambon prefers to meet the sunrises in order to seize the moment and take pictures of dragonflies, moths, grasshoppers, beetles and other insects in an unusual form
A series of funny cartoons by Javier Perez: stick, stick, cucumber, so the little man came out
Once a flower fell on a drawing by artist Javier Perez. Yes, it was so successful that he continued the composition with his outlines. This technique seemed so surprising to the creator that he began to experiment with other objects, applying them to sketches as an effective addition to the cartoon. As a result, a whole collection of works was born, where self-tapping screws act as thorns for a hedgehog, forks replace the walls of the leaning tower of Pisa, and a balloon is conceived as a shade from a light bulb. Even more creative ideas in our
Comic art project Bug Memorials. Let us honor the memory of dead insects
The careless behavior of pedestrians and drivers on the road leads to the fact that roadside posts, fences and trees become a kind of memorials, decorated with wreaths, flowers and ribbons in memory of those who became victims of an accident at this very place. For some, such signs serve as a warning about danger, someone does not pay attention to these peculiar "decorations" or even considers them inappropriate, and the Carmichael Collective studio from Minneapolis has an original hume on this topic
