Wannes Goetschalckx is a Belgian artist who is doing the most brilliant and sometimes odd projects. For this one called ‘Toothpick’ he decided to create a toothpick out of a huge Poplar Tree, by hand, carving it layer by layer, taking him almost 4 months of work.

Yoan Capote is an upcoming allround artist from Cuba who makes the most fantastic sculptures and installations.

Lovely piece of art by French artist Gaëlle Villedary, which consists of a 1400ft long grass carpet all through the French Village of Jaujac. The installation with the misleading name ‘Tapis Rouge’ was created to reconnect the the inhabitants of the village with the landscape surrounding them. I guess it would make a nice add[...]

‘Punishment’ is a totally strange but brilliant series of works by the remarkable German artist Julius von Bismarck, for which he travelled to Switzerland, South America and the United States to whip, yes… WHIP, mother nature and a bunch of famous landmarks. He’s whipping the Atlantic ocean, he’s whipping a glacier, he’s whipping trees and he’s whipping the[...]

I entered the museum as a[...]
