Dense Mixed-Media Sculptures Depict a Poignant Collision of Urban and Natural Worlds
// Colossal
From This Distance: Sound Pearls, 2014. Edition of 30, Signed/Numbered, Heavy 308 gsm photo rag paper, 12″ x 12″.
In a fantastic collision of natural and human-made elements, Minneapolis-based artistGregory Euclide explores aspects of nature, impermenance, and the human experience in unusual relief artworks that seem to grow and drip from vertical surfaces. Some sculptures are framed inside boxes, contained worlds of topographical chaos incorporating plastic, foam, paper, model elements, architectural and geometric elements, paint, ink, and a host of other mediums. Other artworks are mounted atop standard whiteboards found in classrooms, a nod to his role as a teacher where he’s been known to paint elaborate sumi ink landscapes during his lunch break—all of which are subsequently erased.
Several of the pieces seen here will be on view later this April as part of Euclide’s solo show atHashimoto Contemporary. You can also explore much of his recent work on Behance.

To Build or Not to Build: Fantastical Architecture from 2015
// Core77
This year we saw a bunch of architecture in the fantasy realm, and as always, it’s tough to decide which is more exciting: The concepts, or the out-there structures that some people were actually crazy enough to build.
Nowhere was that more true than in The Original, Real-Life Dystopian Cityscape of Kowloon Walled City, and the Artwork It Inspired:
Architecture firm NBBJ proposed this Dual Skyscraper Design that “Erases” Shadows Between Them:
Going even sexier, we saw some Beautiful Architectural Visualizations from Mir:
What about architecture in outer space? We went back to the ’70s to check out some Space Colony Form Factors, Part 1: Bernal Spheres.
Bernal’s globe shape not doing it for you? There’s always Space Colony Form Factors, Part 2: O’Neill Cylinders.
For those of you that are hard to satisfy, maybe you’d prefer the torii or gi-normous Bishop’s Rings in Space Colony Form Factors, Part 3: The Stanford Torus and Beyond.
Back on Earth, a guy named Jono Williams apparently couldn’t decide between globe and cylinder either. So as we saw in Designer/Engineer Builds Steel Treehouse—and the Tree to Hold It, he went for both.
in the realm of holy-cow-they-really-built-
Scandinavia doesn’t get the sunlight that Bali does, so one couple in Sweden has made the most of solar harvesting by building An Eco-Friendly House Wrapped Inside a Larger Glass House:
Finally, one place that gets no sunlight at all is an underground parking garage. But we saw a rather novel, light-flooded one in Architecture Firm Designs Batcave-Inspired Carpark, Complete with Hidden Entrance, Under This Stately Manse.

A Photographic Celebration of America’s Vibrant Textile Industry by Christopher Payne
// Colossal
S&D Spinning Mill, Millbury, Massachusetts
Typically focusing on obsolete or decrepit architectural structures, photographer Chris Payne‘s most recent project, Textiles, documents the aesthetics of the colorfully-hued American textile industry. His photographs showcase the bright runs of yarn and thread as the materials makes their way through the hyper-organized machinery, appearing digitally altered in their extreme hot pinks, vibrant reds, and electric blues.
Payne began photographing the factories and mills in America’s Northeast in 2010. The images are not just snapshots of the industry, but photographs that sometimes took months to catch. Due to the machinery’s continuous run and his inability to halt production, Payne had to wait until the perfect moment when the right color would appear, or the parts of the machinery would perfectly align. Payne also features the workers within his documentation of the diminishing domestic industry, explaining that their inclusion is proof that labor and craftsmanship is still valued in our current economy.
“Over the past five years, I have gained access to an industry that continues to thrive, albeit on a much smaller scale, and for the most part, out of public view,” said Payne. “Many mills are doing quite well, having modernized to stay competitive, while others have survived by catering to niche markets that value the ‘genuine article’ produced on the original, vintage equipment. I view my work as a celebration of American manufacturing—not a eulogy.
Trained as an architect, Payne typically shoots architectural structures using large format documentation to capture America’s industrial landscape. Past projects have includedexploring America’s asylums and an uninhabited island named North Brother Island in New York City’s East River. Payne’s Asylum series will appear at Benrubi Gallery February 11, 2016 and run through March 26, 2016. (via Huffington Post)
