Instead of using ordinary buttons and pins to stitch up clothes, Korean-born artist Ran Hwang creates amazingly large installations of birds and cherry blossom trees. When you look up close, the amount of individual buttons is somewhat overwhelming, but from afar, the installation transforms into one breathtaking image. No adhesive is used so the buttons are free to stay and move, which implies the genetic human tendency to be irresolute. She uses buttons because according to her they are common and ordinary, like the existence of human beings.
Hwang graduated from the School of Visual Arts in NYC and has exhibited her work in New York, Paris and Seoul.

Enkel Dika is the name
Friday is here and I couldn't think about a better thing to post today than this. Some time ago I've found this amazing artist, Enkel Dika, who makes awesome art.
Enkel has come with some of the best T-shirt arts I've seen in a while... these are some truly groovy, psychedelic pieces, and I bet most of you will love it as much as I did. He's done work for Threadless and has won some awards there, so I recommend you to check his portfolio for even more of his stunning illustrations.
