Tuft’s “Entropy” series captures the sublime and awe-inspiring beauty of nature as it is radically transformed under the unrelenting pressures of climate change. Focusing on water as her subject, Tuft contrasts global sea-level rise with water depletion in Utah’s Great Salt Lake.

JUSTINE KURLAND: THIS TRAIN, 2005-2011

Posted on 2024-03-04

Kurland’s life on the road began as a child. Her mother and siblings would travel up and down the East Coast to make a living selling crafts at Renaissance fairs. Long before cell phones and our modern “van life” era, Kurland inherited certain types of knowledge: how to get by in a nomadic mode, how to build out a livable van and how to raise children on the journey. So when Kurland took to the road to hone her own craft she mirrored much of what she had learned from the family business. Unfettered by the social constructs that dominate and define the norms of family; from pregnancy through the first decade of her child’s life, they traversed America together with a 4×5 camera.

THE THRILLER CRIMINAL JACKET 12″

Posted on 2024-03-04

Thailand-based artist Fatoh’s newest celebration of iconic musicians is his The Thriller Criminal Jacket resin art toy. Inspired by Michael Jackson’s unforgettable song and music video that are Halloween staples as well as the gravity-defying Smooth Criminal pose, the impressive new resin features the singer in an extremely large puffy jacket continuing Fattoh’s series of figures paying homage to the popular fashion statement.

Fatoh’s skill seems to grow with each release and is showcased here with the MJ face sculpt and paint treatment. The singer would be easily recognizable from the head alone. Looking to deliver the full Thriller experience, the new figure follows the music video starting with the red/yellow letterman’s jacket. And of course, Fattoh has the transformation covered with an included swappable magnetic werewolf head.
