Ebenezer Archer Kling has an obsession of sorts with limbs proven by his display using a melody of body parts. He uses the forum to put his foot print on modern art. Hands down this is the most interesting concept that I’ve seen. It’s like entering The Highlights (if you don’t remember it’s the magazine at the doctor’s office for kids) and trying to find the missing piece of puzzles. Using back drops of earth tones or bright hues, he hides innuendos within but exhibits more than what meets the eye gaining subliminal attention. [...]

Darkness brings color to life but shadows dance with the slight addition of illumination. One of the strengths of its obscurity is that it allows one to acknowledge the detail of an object engulfed in its presence. It emphasizes levitation when there is nothing left to stand on and show its restraints. Artist Jesse Fillingham from Pasadena in Southern California has craftily used the reflective and deflective ends of the prism to create unique and somewhat sadistic facial animations and open universes with its own aura stamped on canvas. Framed with constants only to [...]

There's a sense of experimentation that makes Jesse Draxler 's work particularly fun to take in. From project to project, and series to series, Jesse takes subtle, but substantial steps into new stylistic territory, and yet still maintains an undeniable tone. Occasionally dark, eerie and moody, but just as often elegant, and playfully subversive. Over the course of the last year-plus, we've been keeping up with his Jesse from collection to collection, from the handful of collage pieces featured in our Black & White showcase last year, to our feature interview late last year.

When the eyes meet these beautifully hand crafted sculptures fabricated by German born Angelika Arendt they see the true meaning of craftsmanship. This masonic skill is not common by any means. She found the unique way of strategically montaging each of piece of polymer clay to fashion what looks to be replicas of coral reefs that live underwater in one of those tropical vacation locations. -Clifton [...]

En 1897 Felix Hoffman logró sintetizar por primera vez, en forma pura y estable, el ácido acetilsalicílico, un principio activo cuyas primeras y más conocidas indicaciones lo muestran como analgésico y antipirético. Sus cristales son alargados, de sabor ligeramente amargo y de color blanquecino. El ácido acetilsalicílico es un principio activo empleado para aliviar el dolor y disminuir la fiebre. Ante estímulos nocivos, se activan terminaciones nerviosas específicas. A través del nervio, el estímulo llega a la médula espinal y ésta lo transmite hasta el cerebro, el cual lo interpreta, y como resultado percibimos [...]

FOLLOWING last week's reworking of The Velvet Underground And Nico's cover art by Andy Warhol, our Felt Hits continue with another classic drawn by a six-year-old. I hope it hasn't left you in the dark trying to guess - if you're stuck, give it some time, it's an all time classic. Please post your answers in the comments below this post. And if the iconic answer still eclipses you, perhaps you've got brain damage - you'll have to wait until next Friday to breathe a sigh of relief and find out the answer.

Superman needs his Fortress of Solitude and Batman has the Bat Cave. We all need a favorite space to relax, reflect, write, read a book, watch a movie or showcase a favorite collectible or souvenir. Perhaps it’s a game room, library or secret room hidden by a moveable bookcase that leads to a man cave. I’ve always been curious what curios J.J. Abrams keeps close by, what books fill Stephen King’s shelves, what collectibles does Patton Oswald possess, what artwork lines Jim Lee’s walls, how many toys fill John Lasseter’s Pixar office and what movie memorabilia [...]

For Kristen Schiele , presentation is definitely part of the package when she takes to creating something that's never been put together before. Not one to settle with a paintbrush and paper, she's adept in both arranging images, colors, shapes and ideas into intricate shadowboxes that give a brief glimpse into stories that beg to be told but are only hinted at, as well as composing nearly to scale installations that leave the viewer no choice but to be taken to the place she intends them to be. Her paintings dazzle as well; being mostly deconstructed versions [...]

Last night I experienced something so unforgettable and so mind-blowing that I am just happy to share with the readers on Mindinversion.net.  I love music so much, yet I find it incredibly hard to write to an audience while being succinct, to the point, factual-in great depth, and at the same time remain fair, interesting, and unbiased. Like, this is what I truly listen to.  I am not just pushing this to promote someone I know. So when I come across an experience such as this I must share.  I am going to avoid the small details, not do a bio, [...]
