Talk about Repurposed! When looking at an old out of service school bus most people wouldn’t see a potential bust stop shelter, but that is what artist Christopher Fennell has done here. By resurrecting these old scrap heaps, Fennell has recycled in an unorthodox, but rather amazing way.


 


During our exploration of public spaces we have seen many different ways that people have transformed the areas around them in creative ways, using graffiti or public art and sculpture to repurpose and recreate the space around them. Fennell specializes in using materials that have been thrown out, things considered unusable and unwanted by society, and transforms them into something new. Looking at innovative ideas like this I can’t help but feel that we should be seeing more things like this in our cities and towns. A little creativity can go a long way for changing our world.

Julian opie, artist known for his thick lined illustration like paintings and bizarre animatied gifs of subtly smiling models.

I also dig Julian Opie's classic Mac desktop website which is profoundly disorientating to say the least :).

This is pretty crazy and surreal!

If you're seeing this under the influence of... uh... medicine... don't worry. It's all gonna be fine. It's just a painting. Or... a series of paintings.

It’s a visual celebration of values strategically painted on the business end of the working man’s chariot. Not always beautiful, but undeniably awesome.

To qualify as a true mexican tailgate mural, the mural must be airbrushed and include at least one of 6 possible images (often in combination to achieve maximum flare): (1) the Virgin Mary or Jesus Christ, (2) a rendition of the owners pickup truck relaxing near a palm tree-laden oasis, (3) a mis-proportioned likeness of the truck owner’s childrens’ faces (4) a busty scantily-clad woman, typically posing on her knees (5) any Looney Tunes character, although usually Yosemite Sam, Tas or Tweety (6) Selina

If only all state could be southern border states… one can only dream.

Great art work!
