"Misplaced Series is a project that takes notable New York buildings from their existing surrounding environments and inserts them into desolate locations out of context. By sequestering these structures from the hustle that usually swallows them, their architectural form becomes more defined and easily understood. The juxtaposition of these concrete volumes and glossy glass windows against sand dunes and rocky cliffs forms a new way of perceiving and appreciating these otherwise familiar architectural landmarks.Short fictional stories accompanying each building are written to help readers experience the ambiguity and absurdness of each scene. Architects are confused with the irrational task of designing something in the desert, self-expanding constructions that seek for new places to exist, unsold tickets to museums that are nowhere to be found and luxury hotels with no guests. Each story might have been a short scene from the movie that is never going to be watched, same way as those building are never going to be somewhere else." text by Jon Earle for Anton Repponen.

Beau Bernier Frank (@beaubfrank) is a 22-year-old French-American surrealist painter currently working from his studio in the city of Pacific Grove, located on the California coast. Coping with disease and not being able to walk or work for several months gave Beau an opportunity to brainstorm and explore his artistic inclinations. He eventually developed a new innovative and unique style of collages of landscapes with portraits. These paintings would mark the beginning of his new career as an emerging artist and the creation of his latest collection, “Off the Grid.”

"At first glance, the sculptures of Dan Lam (Instagram) might seem like living organisms. Created with intense hues, the pieces seem to drip right before the viewers’ eyes with an undeniable energy.Lam uses polyurethane foam, acrylic paint and epoxy resin to create her intricate pieces. She starts with a shape and lets the foam takes its own course, guiding it ever so slightly. Afterwards, she chooses a colour and dots the surfaces of each piece with paint to create even more visual rhythm." via TCP
