Marc Fornes

The first image below is the sculptural designs of Marc Fornes. Fornes signature creations use curved circular shapes, and lattice sphere shapes, with his signature white coloring. 
The bottom image is copyrighted from The Very Many[1] and is a collaboration with Yayoi-kusama who is obsessed with dots and lives for dots. Kusama wants her installation observers to be fully emerged in the artwork, and make dots become apart of their life, and creates living rooms for art adorers to experience. Kusama has stated in an interview that she literally goes dotty for the spotty, and starts to see double vision of floating dots long after finishing an installation. The bottom installation was made especially for the Louis Vuitton pop-up store in London for a limited time in 2012.

Waiheke Island, Auckland New Zealand

Below are photographs by Nicola Tickner of the Sculpture on the Gulf of Waiheke Island, Auckland, New Zealand. This outdoor exhibition of notable, and famous New Zealand Artists is held every three years, and is attended by thousands of visitors. One of my favourite works is the hand-woven sheep spun ladder like 'Sheep Track', which was produced by one of my favourite New Zealand artist's, Gina Ferguson. This lady taught me for a year during my studies at Unitec Art and Design programme. Would like to thank her for continuing to inspire me during my studies and encouraging me to keep up my passion for all things artistic once I graduated :)
