Mike Pelletier: Lucy Skull
“In 2011 I was invited to create a piece for an exhibition called “Ctrl-Z” curated by 3d artist
Eric Van Straaten. This was a group exhibition of artworks created by various 3d printing processes. The model of the skull was generated from a friend’s dental tomography scan. The form of the object was created by creating an array of copies of the skull, where each successive copy of the skull is scaled, rotated, and moved. The skull starts at life size at the front and ends up rotated 180 degrees and two times larger than life at the back.”
Settlements and City Strategies by Lekan Jeyifous
Lekan Jeyifo (tumblr / twitter)
This series contains abstracted planimetric drawings and eerily-serene cityscapes that suggest the changing contours of urban settlements. They represent an idea of a degenerate futurism, yet one might find similar typologies and scenes in places such as the favelas of Brazil and North Africa, and in overpopulated cities such as Lagos, Mexico City, and Mumbai. Though outputted digitally, the drawings possess a textured and painterly quality as a result of combining hand-drawn sketches, industrial textures, surfaces of deteriorated paper, and digital architectural models.
A constant interplay between digital and analog processes is important in my work, resulting in a highly layered set of documents. The drawings presented here started out as digital images that were outputted, sketched and drawn over, and scanned back into the computer in order to be retraced, textured, and layered

THE ICONIC FLOATING FOREST OF SYDNEY
There are a lot of shipwrecks in Sydney’s Homebush Bay, near the Olympic village, but none quite like the SS Ayrfield, also known as “The Floating Forest” for the lush mangrove vegetation that now covers its rusty hull.

RUTH MARTEN
“Ruth Marten’s drawings occupy and enact upon the historical spaces of vintage prints by detourning them with the precision of the tattoo artist. From 1972 to 1980 she was an important figure in the tattoo underground and, as one of the few women practicing the craft, influenced people’s ideas about body decoration. Working during the disco and punk era, she also tattooed in the Musée D’Art Moderne de La Ville de Paris during the 10th Biennale de Paris in 1977.”

DEEP SKY OBJECTS BY GERALD RHEMANN
Astrograph Gerald Rhemann - “I am specialized in deep, wide-field vistas of the Milky Way using short-focal-length telescopes and large-format CCD cameras. In partnership with my friend Michael Jäger we are searching the sky for undiscovered comets and record those which are currently visible. I have been sky-shooting since 1989. I photograph under the clear skies of the Austrian Alps, the Canary Islands, and the deserts of Namibia. I was born in Vienna, where I owned a camera store. Currently I work as a sales manager and consultant for Astro Systeme Austria, which is a company producing high quality Astrographs.”
