The Buddhist inspired art of Sangeeta Abhay - Artists Inspire Artists

My Inspiration… Our world is fraught with insecurity of virtually every kind today. It is a period of tribulation. But all is not lost, nor is the situation beyond redemption.

Threaded portraits by Petro Vrellis - Artists Inspire Artists

Petro Vrellis creates stunning portraits of people you won’t believe are created completely out of thread. Each piece uses up a few thousand meters of black thread, which he crisscrosses across a primitive circular loom in straight lines. He uses computer algorithms to help generate the pattern but weaves the final artwork completely by hand …

Haunting Porcelain Busts by Juliette Clovis

At first glance, Juliette Clovis’ porcelain busts are striking, peculiar, and, to some, quite possibly grotesque. However, the interweaving of flora, fauna, and  spikes into her busts create a wonderfully bizarre and beautiful series of art work. I found myself enveloped by her spiked-adorned busts, entranced by the gold tips that conveyed a sense of beauty, danger, abnormality, and vulnerability. 

Drawing on the female identity, as well as the representation of women in contemporary society and its history, the French artist creates busts of the female form that transforms into hybrid beings. Her use of cut-up butterflies, birds, vegetables, as well as her use of spikes, help bring to life her vision of the female identity. For more of Juliette Clovis’ work, follow her on Instagram.

Jon Rappleye blends imagery found in art history, literature, biology, and folklore to portray the cyclical nature of life and death. Ranging from surreal paintings to mixed media sculptures, his works draw from the detailed illustrations of James John Audubon and hallucinatory worlds of Salvador Dalí. And while his subject matter can be grim at times, the artist renders it in such a way that it becomes beautiful and enchanting. View more on HiFructose.com.
