PLAY IN SLINKACHU'S 'CONCRETE OCEAN'

Slinkachu keeps it simple. He paints little tiny figures, places them in precarious situations within urban environments and then snaps a picture.  If you're lucky enough to spot one in its natural street habitat, you've scored one for serendipity.

Concrete Ocean is Slinkachu's latest exhibit currently on display at Andipa Gallery in London. Check it out. Photos were snapped by the good people over at Arrested Motion. You can also watch a sweet video that takes you behind the scenes of Concrete Ocean. I can't embed it, but you can view it over at Don't Panic. Via: Arrested Motion by way of MashKulture

FISH BOOTH: FRESH USE OF A USELESS OBJECT

Who's used a phone booth recently? I can't think of the last time I stepped into one (on purpose). Thanks to lighting designer Benoit Deseille and artist Benedetto Bufalino, the phone booth has a new life.

Taken to task to contribute to the annual Festival of Lights in Lyon, France, Benoit and Benedetto have transformed an unused phone booth into a living aquarium. The juxtaposition and intrigue this simple installation has generated gives new reason to re-examine modern day uses of abandoned and obsolete structures such as the lonely phone booth. With the right city works and community involvement, a world with street aquariums has an exciting future. Via: Good

The artists inspiration explained:

                          With the advent of the mobile telephone, telephone booths lie unused. 
                          We rediscover this glass cage transformed into an aquarium, full of 
                          exotically colored fish; an invitation to escape and travel.
