These photos has been tumbled, reblogged and and shared exponentially, but INSA’s “Girls on Bikes” installation is an ongoing project. Like the title suggests, “Girls on Bikes” works with volunteer models, bikes, and large scale, public painted walls by INSA. From INSA:

In this set of photographic works INSA orchestrates a conflicting dialogue between all the elements and explicitly subordinates the value of his own street art to both the possessed object of the bike and the overtly sexualized female presence. Thus questioning our individual perceptions of ownership of public space, of sexuality and of belongings.

As part of there latest exhibition Animate Everything opening today (Thursday July 21, 2011) Protein invited INSA to create one of his innovative GIF-ITTI pieces on the side of there new head quarters- 18 Hewett St. INSA spent 4 days painting and repainting the entire side of this 3 story building to produce the final animated wall entitled ‘Summer Spectrum’.

“Gif-itti is a new form of animated wall art, pioneered by UK artist INSA. They are wall paintings that can only truly be viewed online, where these days the majority of ’street’ art is seen. These works exaggerate the ephemeral nature of graffiti as each layer is painted instantly over the last. Mixing retro internet technology and labour intensive painting, INSA creates slices of infinite un-reality, cutting edge art for the tumblr generation.”

Animate Everything runs to August 15, 2011.

Insa and designer Ben Rousseau have been hard at work putting their artistic touch on the current incarnation of the Ice Hotel. The duo worked just under 3 weeks in sub-35 degree tempratures to carve a gigantic pair of ice heels. What they created is a grand artist suite with bed between the legs, and an arched window decorated with Insa’s signature engravings.
