Weird Internet Find of the Day

Featured today on Weird Internet Find of the Day is artist Kate Macdowell. Kate presents dead and decaying animals with anthropomorphic features--blurring the difference between man and nature in a state of destruction. According to her,

"In my work this romantic ideal of union with the natural world conflicts with our contemporary impact on the environment. These pieces are in part responses to environmental stressors including climate change, toxic pollution, and gm crops. They also borrow from myth, art history, figures of speech and other cultural touchstones. In some pieces aspects of the human figure stand-in for ourselves and act out sometimes harrowing, sometimes humorous transformations which illustrate our current relationship with the natural world."

Personally, I think these are great. They're deeply creepy yet still beautiful, and they brilliantly illustrate a very controversial issue.

Hungry?

Brilliant. Part of me wishes I was badass enough to warrant such a cool business card.

Logo Process

Simply put, logos are the bane of my art school existence. I find them exceedingly frustrating and difficult to complete, and thoughts of the four I am currently struggling with keep me up at night. That being said, I really love looking at real designer's work with logos, and I find it especially helpful when they show their process and development of the logo along with the final product. Granted, this doesn't show the entire process, unless this person can make a banging logo in one go, but it's still rather neat.

Let the Sun Shine
