Badges and corks from bottles, pins and carnations, spools of thread, jars of varnish and mascara brushes … No, not the contents of the box of a careless hostess, and not useless rubbish to throw away - all these are materials for creativity, from which the artist Ian Wright makes up various installations. Basically, portraits or images of people, both famous and unknown to the general public. He has such an unusual hobby. The artist considers his installations to be games, entertainment. He is carried away by the process itself, and the result, often unexpected, is just a pleasant addition.
Ian Wright's main motivation is to find unusual uses for ordinary things, so installations from various objects have nothing to do with these objects. For example, the pixelated portrait of Mao Zedong has nothing to do with the multicolored icons depicting floral designs.
By the way, installations of this kind are quite popular among those who are engaged in non-traditional forms of art. So, once we already wrote about a Russian artist named Yegor Bashakov and his famous project State of Mine. Soul mates I suppose:)

"Everything flows, everything changes". Ephemeral beauty in the work of Nicole Dextras
Artist Nicole Dextras is very fond of working with clothes, but she does it in very unusual ways. For example, her work is highly dependent on the time of year and the weather outside. If it's summer, then Nicole goes to the garden, where she picks up weeds and turns them into beautiful dresses. If it is winter outside, the artist takes ready-made clothes and … freezes them in blocks of ice. It's worth seeing, isn't it?
