sparkle and shine

here are few artists that i have stumbled upon in the last year that i find really inspiring. gracia haby creates amazing worlds through collage. she sometimes collaborates with louise jennison to make wonderful artists books and litho prints. their new online shop can be found here. i love the aesthetic of gracia's work and her titles are very clever...


{Everything that reminds me of you makes me unbelievably sad.}


{Coins in every fountain.}


{It had to be said, it reminded them of home.}

angela singer is an animal rights activist who often uses recycled taxidermy in her work. these works are from her series "my dearest, dearest creature 2006"...





and last but not least, julia deville—an amazing jeweller and artist. check out her beautiful website . she has a show out at the dowse at the moment which i can't wait to see. like angela singer she is a total animal lover, and she has a very healthy attitude towards mortality and death. a good interview with her can be read here...
