"Momentary Vitality" Preview 2 from Joel Penner on Vimeo.
I am sure we all have seen time lapse videos before - but until today I had never seen a time lapse video done with a flat bed scanner.
Joel Penner has taken flowers for his Momentary Vitality project and scanned their slow decay every few hours and thus creating these stunning animations.
I have just discovered this street artist called Nomerz - unfortunately only on the internet and not in London (yet?). My favourite type of street art is when the environment is incorporated into the artwork themselves. And Nikita Nomerz - so his full name - is great with it. Hopefully he'll find his way from Russia soon to the UK too.
Yes, unbelievable but true. What you look at here is not a photograph of goldfish in a bucket. This is actually three dimensional picture created by painted layers of resin.
The artist Riusuke Fukahori spents an incredible amount of effort on creating his artworks. The technique is similar to that of a 3D printer, where each added layer reveals a little bit more about the object.
This in my eyes is true and utter genius.
Watch this video to see the master at work.

So, you feel like your room looks a bit plain? Why don't you invite a few thousand children, give them thousands and thousands of little coloured stickers and let them spice up your boring space a bit?
Well that's pretty much what Yayoi Kusama did in the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art. The installation is called the Obliteration Room and is part of the Look Now - See Forever project and is running until March. So hurry hup and get your little ones or maybe even yourself down there and post a sticker.
