Argentinean sculptor Adrián Villar Rojas creates enormous sculptural works that seem like remnants of a science fiction movie set, or bizarre moments from a surreal dream.
The awesome piece you see here is entitled My Family Dead (2009). Here a life-size blue whale, created by the artist, lies beached in the woods outside Ushuaia, Argentina. The stranded cetacean is pockmarked with tree stumps, which leaves the viewer wondering if it’s being slowly claimed by the forest or perhaps it’s a native resident. Beautiful and utterly awesome.

Danny Brito is so damn good. Look at this incredible planty garden lady. #art #awesome
I designed the cover for this issue of Domestic Etch magazine. It’s magazine filled with amazing art. I’ve got a few pages inside the magazine with a pretty lengthy interview. My interviewer was the amazing Sashiko Yuen.
“The “Growth & Decay” themed issue of NY and Providence based art/design magazine “Domestic Etch” features interviews with wanderlust-inclined artist Pat Perry, Miami illustrator Danny Brito, oil painter Kris Knight, and the talented doodler and poster designer Sam McKenzie. Also included are original works exploring the theme of “Growth & Decay” by over 20 artists, including Sashiko “Wishcandy” Yuen, Devon Anna Smith, Lilly Piri, Burton Durand (Of Horse_eComics), Jared Chapman, Daniel Mackie, Tyler Parker, Nate Koehler, and many more!”

Best project ever.
Can 1 man photograph every animal species on Earth?
National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore is on a mission to photograph every species — and help save them in the process. When he’s between the photoshoots that send him everywhere from the Galapagos Islands to Antarctica, Sartore spends his time at zoos and aquariums photographing animals for his personal venture, The Biodiversity Project. This huge undertaking was Sartore’s idea, and of the 6,000 species on the planet, he’s already captured nearly a third.Check out more of Joel Sartore’s stunning work.
