Old school gaming continues to reign supreme with a cool accessory I came across earlier today. If you grew up in the late 1980's, early 1990's, than you know how big the original Nintendo console was...
Well, featured here is a lunch box made out of an old, broken Nintendo console. Featuring an interior that is lined with vinyl tape and an exterior that features a suitcase handle and lockable latch.
You can pick yours up today from Etsy.
Just Another Artist Sirum and Dvate hooked up and joined forces the other day to create some rooftop beautification. Sirum mixing it up a bit and writing Venom in his classic and recognizable style while Dvate busted it out in his usual crazy lettering...
Check out the pics below and keep your eyes peeled to try catch a glimpse in person...
Watercolourist Agnes-Cecile aka Silvia Pelissero was born in Rome, Italy and grabbed my attention the other day with her beautiful portraits.
I love her incredible use of colour! Check out the video below of how she created 'Skies on Fire', one of my favorite pieces and head to her website to see more of her work!
Just Another Artist Kaitlin Beckett has been hard at work creating another one of her beautiful sculptures.
This time she has brought us the 'Flying Fish'. Check out the incredible detail below...
I have been trying to write about Jorge Rodriguez-Gerada's charcoal murals for a little while now and all I can say is they have always left me speechless!
The incredibly detailed, large scaled murals are all completed in pieces of charcoal making them temporary and able to disappear within minutes of it starting to rain.
Check out the video below of him creating a piece for the Alwan 338 Festival and read why he chose to call his piece "Yousif".
"I went to the city of Manama in Bahrain to make a mural as part of the Alwan 338 festival put together by the Al Riwaq Art Space. Knowing the current situation there, I was a little apprehensive but a good friend working with the gallery explained the special nature of what the Al Riwaq Art Space was doing. I met some truly extraordinary people who believe in the role of contemporary art in their country's future. Against all odds they strive to change the barren artistic landscape that exists in Bahrain today.
There are so many layers to Bahrain. There is a huge class division, exotic cars, colossal images of the king everywhere, boundless hospitality, arrests, the smell of tear gas every weekend, road blocks, women who can drive and are free to dress as they wish, a graffiti war between dissidents and the police, an American naval base since 1947, Fuddruckers, Sizzlers, a clamp down on dissident areas, the legal sale of alcoholic beverages, a rich cultural history...
It is easy to resort to the didactic or aesthetically pleasing image, but it is much more difficult to create poetic and emotionally charged art that can reach you at different levels. I decided to create a mural of Yousif, a traditional Bahraini fisherman, one of a few hundred that are left." - Jorge Rodriguez-Gerada
So the moment we've all been waiting for is FINALLY here! The Anyforty x T-world 'Australian Invasion Series' is finally available to purchase online.

Wow! With another Semi-Permanent conference under my belt I feel as inspired as ever... as this was probably one of the strongest batch of speakers I have heard to date.
Not all of them for the first time either! But the likes of Benja Harvey, The Monkeys and Vince Frost brought it just like they did the first time... and first time speaker like Kelli Anderson, Meggs and Luca Ionescu held their own bringing something refreshingly new to the mix.
The Google+ Hangout was also something different for this years event that allowed us to not only connect with Roman Coppola but also his Mum, cousin Jason Schwartzman and a friggin' Leopard!
There are honestly too many highlights too mention so over the next week I am simply going to do a post on each of the speakers with a project or something they shared that really spoke to me.
It's easy to see why Semi-P have reached the big 10... and I look forward to many more years to come. Happy Birthday guys and bring on Melbourne!
There are a lot of different family situations out there - some of us live far away from our folks or may not talk to them as much as we should but today is the day you get to tell you mum how special she really is to you and how much you love her!
In honor of Mother's Day, Michael Marantz asked people in New York City to thank their moms. Check out their heart filled messages below and to all the mum's out there (ours especially) Happy Mother's Day! Hope you have a stupendous day!
