What's Currenlty Inspiring You?... Part IX

From Blek Le Rat:



"I am in this time inspired by the twelve gods of the antique greece. For the Greeks the  gods did not create the universe neither the world but the universe create gods. It was a time where the imagination was arousing and were the reason did not controlled it. In those times anybody could see a nymph escaping through the trees. The reason came later with the christianism....   I was in Firenze in Italy last month and over there the antique statues are outside in the squares of the city. This is incridible. the Italian peolple live with those statues like the Romans lived with them two thousands years ago. The time do not exist  in this  beautiful country."... blek

From DHM:



"I think all stuff around me is inspiring me, even my own shit. but mostly the stuff I see on the net, like this amazing work ofJeff Soto. His colors, caracters and skills...damn, I wish I could do that. everybody should check out his work, if they didn't already know it. Cheers"... DHM

From Pure Evil:

"The photos of Nirvana by Charles Peterson ... he totally GETS the raw energy of the band...I love the destructive energy of Nirvana they FUCKING ROCK. I've been doing big paintings of Nirvana for a show Im doing in 2 weeks....  its going to kick ass

London England...BIG INSPIRATIONS

1. Sitting in the street next to silver mini's drinking and checking out people...

2. Policemen on Horses going down my street...

3. Bloated Rats by the side of the Thames. I have a friend who's a sculptor and she has found thousands of animal bones by the side of the Thames...They're ancient, and they collect under the bridges... she uses them for massive bone chandeliers. Its just WEIRD that rivers are supposed to bring life to a city, yet they also bring so much death drifting in. (morbid thought)

4. Art shows in independent galleries... this week I've seen the skull/motorcycle helmet (modern art), a massive sand zen sculpture machine (white cube), and a video of a vulture in an artists studio (haunch of venison) and theres a mountain of other shows out there...

5. Swedish girls who arrived in London a week ago are always a BIG Inspiration too."... Pure Evil
