TED: Miru Kim’s underground art

I love this one…


Ericailcane, Bologna, Italy

Ericailcane is one of thoses artist which just takes away my breath*. Located in Bologna Ericailcane produces etchings, street art, animations, installations, drawings and obviously what ever else there is to do.

The style of the art work reminds me of Victorian children’s illustrations with a wimsical twist, like seeing something totally familiar combined with something unknown, uncanny and very, very strange. The capture of space in the installations is amazing, like the creatures whirling around you, invading you mental space…

Ericailcane’ website and on facebook.

Show at squadro stamperia galleria, Bologna

*) and makes me want to go into a dark corner never to come out again and never ever again pick up a pencil ^_^…


Terrible Yellow Eyes, May 1, 2009 – January 1, 2010

Really sorry that I missed this!

The project called ‘Terrible Yellow Eyes’ is a collection of Illustrations and Artwork inspired by ‘Where the Wild Things Are‘ the famous picture book by Maurise Sendak. Cory Godbey a Artist and Illustrator based in South Carolina, USA, was able to gather some really astonishing  pieces from some of my favorite Artist.

Have a look at the project on the ‘Terrible Yellow Eyes’ website.

These are my favorites:

With a private boat, by Alberto Cerriteño (one of my favorite artist!).

Hanging around, by Alberto Cerriteño.

Wish You Were Here, by Nate Wragg

King Thing!, by Brittney Lee


Os Gemeos, São Paulo, Brazil – Work in Progress on Youtube

Find of the day: The famous Brazilian streetart twins in action. Love to see their drawing techniques. I first saw their work in a book on Streetart in Brazil ‘Graffiti Brasil’ by Lost Art, Caleb Neelon, and Tristan Manco (also available in the Wellington City Library ^_^…).

If you would like to see more images visit the Os Gemeos group on Flickr.


Hedgehog in the Fog 1975 , Yuriy Norshteyn, Moscow, Russia

Hedgehog in the Fog (Russian: Ёжик в тумане, Yozhik v tumane) is a 1975 Soviet animated film directed by Yuriy Norshteyn, produced by the Soyuzmultfilm studio in Moscow.

The little Hedgehog get side tracked in the fog on his way to meet the bear.
I can’t believe that I only discovered it today. Reminds me a bit of Zdeněk Miler’s ‘Little Mole’ from my childhood.
