A Colossal Week in Art on Designboom

A Colossal Week in Art on Designboom designboom colossal

I’m thrilled to announce that I am now curating a weekly roundup of art over on designboom. The “Week in Art with Colossal” will be published each Saturday and contain the 10 most interesting things I’ve seen on Colossal, designboom, and elsewhere on the web over the past week. From high-speed photos of shattering porcelain figures to a double-dose of mirrored art installations, head on over to designboom to see what happened this week.

After several weeks of searching I finally managed to get in touch with Takayuki Hori the creator of the Oritsunagumono endangered animal origami collection that I posted here a while back. He provided some fantastic additional images and I was able to share them in my latest post over on designboom.

Side note: I should probably make a brief announcement. After picking up several items from Colossal I was contacted by designboom to become a guest editor. I’m humbled and thrilled to be contributing to such a fantastic site and I’ll make sure a teaser is posted here on Colossal every time a designboom piece goes live. Exciting!
