Ofazomi is back from holiday with a sun burn, a pocket full of agates, filthy sneakers and some excellent finds. I’ve missed you, little design-o-centric audience!
Why do so many amazing and multidisciplinary designers hail from Scandinavian countries?
Certainly the arts are respected as vital social intitutions in these parts. But what else? What is the magic bullet? What is it that makes a place as specific as Scandinavian Europe so fertile for the design disciplines?
Joshua DeMonte creates architectural “jewelry” His pieces are fantastic! How, exactly should they be classified? Art? Fashion? Industrial Design? Personal Architecture? Regardless, wouldn’t you want to work on a project with this mind? His portfolio site is here.
A few months ago the head of a grad school arts program told me my art wasn’t. I felt honored. Here’s what artist Golan Levin, who, like me, works with computers, to make art has to say about that. (Click here is the movie below doesn’t work for you.)
Who is Boey?
One interesting artist.
You can check out more of his work here: iamboey.com. You can buy his, eh-hem, overpriced, work here.
If you liked these you may also enjoy these other artists and designers! Love, Ofazomi
