Michael Johansson is a Swedish installation artist who takes OCD tendencies to the next level with his real-life Tetris sculptures. His passion for ordinary and useless things organised into exceptionally good-looking piles makes most neat-freaks look like the biggest slobs. Johansson is obsessed with irregularities and coincidences between to disparate objects which may only be linked by a common colour or a shape. On a
English artist Phoebe Collings-James is known for her punchy often confrontational art, working across painting, sculpture and video she presents for the first time her new body of ceramic work. Choke On Your Tongue is a compelling climax to the artist’s summer in Italy, taking part in Nuove//Residency, a program dedicated to the teaching of ceramic to young international artists. Filling the residencies cavernous show
The work of artist Luka Fineisen seems like it may exist for only a moment. Giant bubbles are scattered throughout the gallery floor. The size of the bubbles are contrasted by their seeming fragility. Fineisen in this way freezes a tense moment, stretching a delicate life long enough for close inspection. The gallery’s reflection on each bubble reminds the viewer of the delicate and temporal
Vyner Street is one of London’s must-visit places for contemporary art and has recently added Korean contemporary gallery, HADA CONTEMPORARY to its list of galleries. (The quiet street was very different from the one I remebered from the first Thursday openings).

When registered, being touched can

Black and White is a very minimalist art form and unlike color photographs does not pretend to mimic the world in a manner similar to the way the human eye might perceive. Black and White is

Dale is located midway between fjord and mountain in the Dalsfjorden and is a small rural community with a population of 3,000. The nearest town is 150 km away.

For the last two decades, Hodges has utilized a broad range of materials — both precious and commonplace — to transform quotidian objects into reflective sculptures. Merging the personal, political and universal, Hodges seeks to evince the immemorial; timeless discourses of identity, loss, mortality and love. Using manipulated, mirror-like elements — inspired by his recent trip to India — Hodges features a greater focus on
Japanese artist Makoto Tojiki works primarily with light, exploring its use in installations, figurative sculptures, as well as kinetic pieces. His No Shadow works shown above are among my favorite, using long strands of lights to create representations of people and animals. “Sometimes an object appears differently from how we remember it to be. Yet, this is often not because the object itself has changed,
