Gum Art – Sculpting with Bubble Gum
Gum Art – Sculpting with Bubble Gum

The Italian sculpture Maurizio Savini has been best known in recent years for his skillful usage of bubble gum, used to create these marvelous bubble gum sculptures. I think this quote about sums up his passion: The sensual act of chewing, the voluptuous warmth of rebelling saliva, the artificial and secretly aseptic fragrance which spreads from the mouth as a promise and [...]

The Art of Outrageous Fire Sculpting

The artist behind these bizarre, and utterly fantastic, sculptures is Anne Colombo who runs the design firm, aptly named, Colombo Construction Corp.

The Wonderful City of Tomorrow, Circa 1920
The Wonderful City of Tomorrow, Circa 1920

Everyone seems to love to speculate about the future. Hell, it’s pretty damn fun. So here are some future city sepculations from the 1920′s. Sadly, their ideal 1950′s city has yet to come to pass.
