Ridiculously cool floating “Silhouette Lam” by Lamp Lamp.

What makes this lamp floating is the integrated levitation technology. It consist out of electromagnetic components and a sophisticated control system. Next to the fact that they employ the very latest LED technology, the lamp is low in power consumption too. With a touch of your fingertip, the lamp can be dimmed to the intensity you require.

El Mac is the latest artist to grace the walls of the Montana Paint compound in Barcelona Spain. Montana, considered by many to be the premier brand of spray paint, has recently had it’s walls adorned with work from the likes of Os Gemeos. Mac threw up a beautiful monochromatic piece in his usual style with the circular textured detailing. More looks, after the fold.

Abominations takes up universal questions, such as speculating on the existence of God and what it means to be moral. In the large work The Immortal, an elk with an impressive rack is pinned by a tree branch into a peculiar, torture-like pose against a white background. On and about him are smaller creatures—hummingbirds and rats —that appear to relish in the great beast’s suffering. Or perhaps they’re merely rubbernecking, taking in the tragic fall of the mighty with relief but also a little schadenfreude.

Last Thursday, Chloe Early opened her exhibit “Feathers and Wax” at the Joshua Liner Gallery.

Working in oils on linen and aluminum panel, Chloe Early has developed a unique style that is simultaneously lush and raw. The romantic and the gritty meet in her paintings, which tease out a distinctively poetic worldview through the juxtaposition of extremes. At their core is a sensitivity to lyrical feelings and themes—love, beauty, innocence, softness—which collide with more worldly symbols of aggression and degradation, such as bullets, bombs, urban refuse, and ruins.
