Carsten Holler


Carsten Holler is a scientist and an artist, an unusual but beautiful combination, by combining these two elements that he is passionate about. He creates interactive installations that encourage fun and an intimacy with his work. I may be the only one but i hate when you go to a gallery and you can't touch or feel any of the art, and this is why this particular artist really stood out for me, as that is the whole idea of his exhibition. He really does create some beautiful work that combine culture and interaction.

I have included some photos of one of my favourite exhibitions of his..

Sammy Slabbinck

In this post I will be showing you an artist that I have only recently found, Slabbinck combines art and photography to create one of a kind photographs that really represent time era with an added humour to each photo. He takes the audience to a bazaar part of his mind, and it is really an inner look of his thoughts and how he chooses to portray them! I love this artist as he really shows a unique way of integrating different elements and techniques that merge together so well and so beautifully.


Some of the following photos are my favourite created by Sammy Slabbinck..

Insperation from Alexa Meade


I think that the first artist that truly inspired my work would have to be Alexa Meade, her inception like people within paintings within pictures are just incredible, her work is truly unique and she has such a great talent. I stumbled upon a when I was studying Meade photography at college and after going in depth in to her personal life and work I took great inspiration from her and her work and I created what I think was some of my best work at the time. So thanks Alexa, if it wasn't for you I would have created this..
